Hey folks, know this may be considered by some to be off topic,
but, for those of you who have a computer that you depend on, you
might want to pay attention, or pass it to a friend.
I'm assuming that this doesn't affect the BN users. Got this
from another list I'm on.
TWO SUBJECT LINES TO BEWARE O;
Just verified this with Snopes and it is REAL.
ALSO WENT TO TRUTH OR FICTION, IT'S on their site also.
;PLEASE INFORM E VERYONE you know!
Emails with pictures of Osama Bin-Laden hanged
are being sent and the moment that you open these emails your
computer will crash and you will not be able to fix it!
;1.) If you get an e-mail along the lines of
'Osama Bin Laden Captured' or 'Osama Hanged' , don't open the
Attachment!!!!
;This e-mail is being distributed through
countries around the globe, but mainly in the US and Israel .
;Be considerate & send this warning to
whomever you know.
;PLEASE FORWARD THIS WARNING AMONG FRIENDS,
FAMILY AND CONTACTS:
;2.) You should be alert during the next few
days:
; Do not open any message with an attached
file called'Invitation' regardless of who sent it.
;It is a virus that opens an Olympic Torch
which 'burns' the whole hard disc of your computer!!!!
;This virus will be received from someone who

you should send this E-mail to all your contacts.
It is better to receive this message 25 times
