TWO SUBJECT LINES TO BEWARE OF

Just verified this with Snopes and it is REAL. ALSOTRUTH OR FICTION, IT'S on their site also. WENT TO

PLEASE INFORM EVERYONE you know

Emails with pictures of Osama Bin-Laden hanged are being sent and the moment that you open these emails your computer will crash and you will not be able to fix it!

1.) If you get an e-mail along the lines of 'Osama Bin Laden Captured' or 'Osama Hanged' , don't open the Attachment!!!!
This e-mail is being distributed through countries around the globe, but mainly in the US and Israel .
Be considerate & send this warning to whomever you know.
PLEASE FORWARD THIS WARNING AMONG FRIENDS, FAMILY AND CONTACTS:
2.) You should be alert during the next few days:
Do not open any message with an attached file called 'Invitation' regardless of who sent it.
It is a virus that opens an Olympic Torch which 'burns' the whole hard disc C of your computer!!!!
This virus will be received from someone who has your e-mail address in his/her contact list, that is why you should send this E-mail to all your contacts.
It is better to receive this message 25 times than to receive the virus and open it
If you receive e-mail called 'invitation', though sent by a friend. Do not open it!!! Shut down your computer immediately!!!!
This is the worst virus announced by CNN, it has been classified by Microsoft as the most destructive virus ever.
This virus was discovered by McAfee yesterday, and there is no repair yet for this kind of virus.
This virus simply destroys the Zero Sector of the Hard Disc, where the vital information is kept.

what is the freakin point of making a stupid virus?? This stuff bugs me sooo much, (had it happen once to me). Seriously, why would someone create a virus just to be a prick to everybody else? Are they really that mean or something? I mean come on, how would they like it if i made a virus sent it to their computer and cost them $1000.00 for now having to buy a brand new computer or lose all their info. It's sooo pointless. These virus creators or whatever are like little high school kids just wanting to be mean.

It's not so much about destroying your system as it is getting info off your system.

I never open anything I don't know either. Just recently our work put in a spam filter deal to cut down on all the crap going around.

sheshhh craigslist? i thought they were supposed to be protected. I guess cause it is public information.

I thought they were too. But I clicked on an item and my screen flashed and my puter just started recycling itself.
