Please do not send these things out without checking them. This message
is a hoax that persuades people to remove a file that is part of Windows
and is not a virus at all. It will not hurt most people's Windows, but
it may do.

Here is a description of this hoax -

It is always important  to check any anti-virus message you receive with
a reliable source such as Symantic or McAfee before taking any action,
including passing on the message.
