One of my friends got an e-mail with this virus, but luckily, he read this in time before the virus could have affected him. So read the article and try and be careful everyone!

I saw that earlier on the news, I don't understand why so many people go through so much trouble just to annoy people. makes no sense.

I got one of those emails yesterday. At first I was like, I wasn't on 30 illegal sites, then I saw it had an attachment. I knew it had to be a virus, I didn't open it though.

NEVER open ANY attachment unless it is something that you are EXPECTING from someone that you actually know.
