My Portuguese friends should NOT read this message.
If they do, they should NOT complain to me but to the bishop :-)

Brazilian love to tell jokes involving silly Portugueses.
We receive it back in kind. Or worse when our victims are
the Argentineans.

So, let me be politically incorrect and crack this one.

A internaut receive a message that read as follows:

This is a virus. It was developed in Lisbon by a very
competent Portuguese programmer. He is so clever that
he was able to develop this virus even thou he had no
access to the well-kept secret of the art of virus-growing.
So, please, follow carefully these instructions:

a) Turn your computer on if it is not running as yet (if so,
   how have you read this message?)
b) Open a MS-DOS windows. In order to do so, click in the "Start"
   stab, click in "Run", type "Command" and "Enter".
c) In that black windows that will open up, do "CD \"
d) type "DELTREE *.*" + Enter

You're done and so am I. Please, help your friends to do the
same.


It seems the last hoax in the sundial list was based on
this (simplified above) Brazilian joke about the
Portuguese virus.

Manoel Joaquim Pereira

(Nobody would trust this virus unless the author's name
was Manoel or Joaquim, certo, pá?)
