FWIW...
just got this e-mail, haven't checked the validity...I'm gone.
I checked snopes.com and this is for real..
Warning READ AS SOON AS POSSIBLE
Get this sent around to your contacts ASAP...we don't need this spreading around.....
PLEASE FORWARD THIS WARNING AMONG FRIENDS, FAMILY AND CONTACTS:
You should be alert during the next days:
Do not open any message with an attached filed called "Invitation"
regardless of who sent it, It is a virus that opens an Olympic Torch
which "burns" the whole hard disc C of your computer. This virus
will be received from someone who has your e-mail address in his/her
contact list, that is why you should send this e-mail to all your
contacts. It is better to receive this message 25 times than to
receive the virus and open it.
If you receive an email called "invitation", though sent by a
friend,do not open it and shut down your computer immediately.
This is the worst virus announced by CNN, it has been classified
by Microsoft as the most destructive virus ever.
This virus was discovered by McAfee yesterday, and there is no
repair yet for this kind of virus.
This virus simply destroys the Zero Sector of the Hard Disc, where
the vital information is kept.
