VIrus Warning
We just got an E-Mail from a "Larry Butler" re: golfing this Saturday.
Our system DELETED it as a virus was detected within the attachment.
Keep an eye out gang

Really. But you forgot to mention where and how and with what as in the clue game.
For example: I suggest the crime was committed in the lounge by the butler with the wrench.

from an email:
WARNING Watch out for these new viruses - Neither Symantec or
McAfee have any solutions for these yet!!!
The Clinton Virus - Gives you a 7-inch Hard Drive with NO memory.
The Bob Dole (Aka Viagra) Virus - Makes a new hard drive out of an old floppy.
The Lewinsky Virus - Sucks all the memory out of your computer, then e-mails everyone about what it did.
The Ronald Reagan Virus - Saves your data, but forgets where it is
stored.
The Mike Tyson Virus - Quits after two bytes
The Oprah Winfrey Virus - Your 300 Mb hard drive shrinks to 100 Mb, then slowly expands to re-stabilize around 200 Mb.
The Jack Kevorkian Virus - Deletes all old files.
The Ellen Degeneres Virus - Disks can no longer be inserted.
The Paxil/Prozac Virus - Totally screws up your RAM, but your processor doesn't care.
The Joey Buttafuoco Virus - Only attacks minor files.
AND THE FAVORITE .
The Lorena Bobbitt Virus - Reformats your hard drive into a 3.5 inch
floppy; then, discards it through Windows.

Has anyone else been getting an email from Microsolf with an attachment saying to install this immediately? The emails appear to come from Microsoft. I must have received the same email from them 15 times in the past couple of weeks. Rogers said that they were forwarding a patch to all emails listed ....@rogers.com but they don't seem to stop.
