Original Message 1/5 03-Dec-02 @ 03:56 PM - VIRUS ALERT!!!
just heard about these particulalry nasty virii
doing the rounds, thought I'd better warn you....
MANCHESTER UNITED VIRUS
Your PC thinks it is far superior to any other
PC and develops
a memory disorder, forgetting anything that
happened before 1993.
DAVID BECKHAM VIRUS
This affects newer PC's mainly. The computer
looks great, all
the lights are on, but nothing works.
ROY KEANE VIRUS
This one is particularly nasty and will throw
you out of Windows.
ALEX FERGUSON VIRUS
The computer develops a continuous whining
noise and the on
screen clock runs a lot faster or slower
(depending on how your day's been) than all
the other
computers in the building.
FABIEN BARTHEZ VIRUS
This one's not particularly harmful - but you
just can't save
anything.
NEVILLE BROTHERS VIRUS
Just when you think things can't get any
worse, this one
pops up and causes a calamitous error.
RYAN GIGGS VIRUS
The computer develops a processor problem,
whereby it
thinks it's better than it actually is.
It also experiences dramatic fluctuations in
performance.
LUKE CHADWICK VIRUS
This is a particularly ugly one.
MAN UTD SHIRT VIRUS
This one is especially hard to detect as it
changes its
format every 3 months.
arf arf, etc.etc.

On a more serious note...
Hiya,
Just a quick excerpt from one of my technical bulletins I get:
"WINEVAR DISABLES ANTIVIRUS, TRIES TO DELETE FILES | News: CNET
Antivirus companies are warning against the Winevar worm that attacks
Windows computers with dangerous payloads that could cost users
valuable data. Winevar spreads via e-mail, attaching itself as a .pif
or .ceo file arriving from fictional organizations. If opened,
Winevar tries to shut down antivirus programs and also attempts to
delete every file on the computer."
Right nasty!
Stay sharp, eh?
