Someone is sending out a very desirable screen-saver, the Budweiser
Frogs - BUDDYLST.ZIP. If you download it, you will lose everything!!!
Your hard drive will crash and someone from the internet will get your
screen name and password! DO NOT DOWNLOAD THIS UNDER ANY
CIRCUMSTANCES!!! IT JUST WENT INTO CIRCULATION YESTERDAY, AS FAR AS WE
KNOW. PLEASE DISTRIBUTE THIS MESSAGE.
This is a new, very malicious virus and not many people know about it.
This information was announced yesterday morning from Microsoft. Please
share it with everyone that might access the internet. Once again, pass
this along to EVERYONE in your address book so that this may be stopped.
Also do not open or even look at any mail that says "RETURNED OR UNABLE
TO DELIVER". This virus will attach itself to your computer components
and render them useless. Immediately delete mail items that say this.
AOL has said that this is a very dangerous virus and that there is NO
remedy for it at this time. Please practice cautionary measures and
forward this to all your on-line friends ASAP.
