Just received this e-mail about a new virus thats apparently doing the rounds so a heads up.

IMPORTANT WARNING!!! NOT A JOKE!!!!

Be Extremely Careful especially if using internet such as Yahoo, Hotmail & AOL.

This information arrived this morning direct from both Microsoft and Norton.

Please send it to everybody you know who has access to the Internet.

You may receive an apparently harmless email with a Power Point presentation "Life is beautiful."

If you receive it DO NOT OPEN THE FILE UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES, and delete it immediately.

If you open this file, a message will appear on your screen saying:

"It is too late now, your life is no longer beautiful."

Subsequently you will LOSE EVERYTHING IN YOUR PC and the person who sent it to you will gain access to your name, e-mail and password.

This is a new virus which started to circulate on Saturday afternoon

Couldn't see if its already been posted, if it has sorry. :p
 
These things have been doing the rounds for years and always take the same format..confirmed by Microsoft, will delete everything on your PC..please pass on to everyone on your address book..blah blah blah.

It's always a good idea to check the validity of information before passing it on in. These messages not only waste bandwidth and server resources but if sent around workplaces can rack up a lot of wasted man hours opening, reading, and deleting the email.
