Please Read the Following:

A very nasty virus is currently making it's rounds...I have received at least 10 emails containing the virus just in the past two days. www.car-truck was hit with it and caused a bunch of havoc with their site (see this link for their horror story http://www.car-truck.com/chryed/buzz/b072301.htm )

Read below and keep an eye on your emails that you receive. Remember, don't ever open an executable file from someone you don't know.
____________________________________________

If you receive an e.mail from someone which begins and ends with the phrases "Hi! How are you?" and "See you later. Thanks" and contains an attachments, DELETE IT IMMEDIATELY - DO NOT OPEN THE ATTACHMENT. Also please note that those key phrases could be in English or Spanish.


Email Text
I send you this file in order to have your advice
I hope you can help me with this file that I send
I hope you like the file that I sendo you
This is the file with the information that you ask for

This virus arrives as an email message with the following content:

Subject: The subject of the email will be random, and could be the same as the file name of the attachment in the email.
Attachment: The attachment will be a file taken from the sender's computer and will have the extension .bat, .com, .lnk or .pif added to it.
Message: The message body will be semi-random, but will always contain one of the following two lines (either English or Spanish) as the first and last sentences of the message.

Spanish Version:
First line: Hola como estas ?
Last line: Nos vemos pronto, gracias.

English Version:
First line: Hi! How are you?
Last line: See you later. Thanks

LOL :) ...I've been getting it for a week too, but hey...don't want any of my 'trep buds to screw up their system. A bunch of people at my work were "smart" enough to open it and now alot of computers are going apesh*t. Seems like every other email I get is this stupid thing.
Funny...I post this so noone gets a virus...and I scan my computer just 15 minutes ago....

I have 5,647 files named AS LOVELETTR.VBS

lol :)

Needless to say, it's gone now...but jeez!!!
??? Wish I knew!

I know for sure I didn't get it from an email (unless my g/f opened one?) I use Outlook 6, and we have different contexts, so I don't read her mail...so she might have opened up something. Dont' know...no use worrying about it now though. :)
Yeah, I got 3 today...it only seems to come on my hotmail account...not on my msn account...hmmmm...
