Subject: RE: A Virus named Bruce
YOU HAVE JUST BEEN SENT A MANUAL VIRUS

How it works:

The manual virus works on an honour system.
So, please firstly e-mail this to everyone in your mailing list, then randomly delete a few of your own computer files.

Thank you.

Okay, I know it's very old, but there are people around who haven't seen it!

BTW - there are many 'Virus Hoaxes' around - which cause servers to get clogged up because hundreds of copies of the emails suddenly start doing the rounds.

Never hit 'forward' until you've checked it out for accuracy, and maybe the hoaxes will die the death they richly deserve!

Eeeeh! I love a good soap box!! Especially when I'm up here on my high horse!!
