Sorry about the typos guys
But the info is O>K
There is a computer virus that is beaing sent across the InterNet. If you
receive an e-mail message with the subject line "Good Times" DO NOT READ
the message. DELETE IT IMMEDIATELY.
Some miscreant is sending e-mail under the title "Good Times" nation-wide. If you get anything like this, DON"T DOWN LOAD THE FILE!. It has a virus that rewrites your hard drive, obliterating anything on it. Please be careful and forward this mail to
anyone you care about- I have
WARNING !!!!!!!! INTERNET VIRUS
The FCC released a warning last Wednesdat concerning a matter of major impor-
tance to any regular user of the InterNet. Apparently, a new computer virus
has been engeneered by a user of America Online that is unparalled in its
destructive capability. Other, mor well known viruses such as Stoned, Airwolf
Michalengelo pale in comparison to the prospects of this newest creation by warped mentality. What makes this virus so terrifying, said the FCC, is the fact
that no program needs to be exchanged for a new computer to be infected. It
can spread through the existing e-mail systems of the InterNet. Once a computer
is infected, one of several things can happen. If the computer cntains a hard drive, tha will most likely be destroyed. If the program is not stopped, the
computer's processor will be placed in an nth-complexity infinite binary loop-
which can severly damage the processor if left running that way to long.
Unfortunately most novice computer users will not realize what is happening
intil it is far too late. Luckily, there is one sure means detecting what we
know as the "Good Times" virus. It always travels to new computers tha same
way in a text e-mail message with the subject line reading simply "Good Times"
Avoiding infection is easy once the file has been received- NOT READING IT!!!
The act of loading the file into the mail server"s ASCII buffer causes the
"Good Times" mainline program to initialize and execute. The program is
highly intelligent - it will send copies of itself to everyone whose e-mail addresse is contained in a received mail file or a sent-mail file, if it can find
one. It will then proceed to trash the computer it is running on. The bottom line here is: If you receive a file with the subject line "Good Times", delet
immediately. DO NOT READ IT!!! Rest assured that whoever's name was on the "From" line was surely stuck by the virus.
Warn your friends and local system users of this newest threat to the InterNet. It could save them a lot of time and money.
I hope it is clear
