SOBER,worst ever virus

 


vic_msn
A new virus has just been discovered that has been classified by Microsoft
as the most destructive ever. This virus was discovered by McAfee . This virus simply destroys Sector Zero from the hard disk, where vital information for its functioning are stored.

This virus acts in the following manner
It sends itself automatically to all contacts on your list with the title
A Card for You.
As soon as the supposed virtual card is opened the computer freezes so
that the user has to reboot. When the ctrl+alt+ del or the reset
button is pressed, the virus destroys Sector Zero,in your HDD thus permanently destroying the hard disk.
This alert was received by an employee of Microsoft.
So don't open any mails with subject A Virtual Card for You. As soon as you get(if you) the mail delete it be careful
because we guys cannot live without a computer.look after it.
