PLEASE, CIRCULATE THIS NOTICE BETWEEN FRIENDS, FAMILY AND CONTACTS.

In the next few days you should be alert:

DO NOT open any message with an attachment called "Invitation:, 
independently of who sent it to you.

It is a virus that "opens" an Olympic Torch that "burns" your computer's 
hard drive.

This virus will come from a person that you know and is in your address 
book.

This is the reason that you should send this e-mail to all of your 
contacts, it's better to have received it 25 times than to receive the 
virus and open it.

If you receive an e-mail called "Invitation," even if it is sent by a 
friend, DO NOT open it!

DELETE it!

Immediately shutoff your computer and reboot.

ANNOUNCED BY CNN:

A new virus has been recently found that has been classified by 
Microsoft as the most destructive virus that has existed.

McAfee discovered this virus yesterday afternoon and there is not a 
known fix for this kind of virus. This virus simply destroys the hard 
drive's Sector Zero, where the information for the vital function is stored.

IT IS NECESSARY TO HAVE ALL POSSIBLE PROTECTION.

PLEASE CIRCULATE THIS MESSAGE BETWEEN FRIENDS, FAMILY AND CONTACTS
