RE: Fw: Another E-Mail Virus Warning

[Mark Bellefeuille <MCB@itexchsrv1.phx.mcd.mot.com>]

Robin is completely correct.
The best thing to do with the Good Times email is use your delete key...
However;
I've been observing the 'Good Times' email for about 9 years.
I believe it is a virus: 
It replicates. 
It takes up computer cpu/memory/disk.
It goes dormant. 
It is impossible to kill as every time some one who doesn't understand
that an email message which is simply 'read' (Obviously I'm *not*
referring to a Word Macro virus which is launched by invoking the Word)
can not / does not ever gain access/control of the cpu or disk.
