VIRUS WARNING – VERY URGENT!!!

this is not a joke ! There is a new virus about called CuteFluffyBengal. It will arrive after receiving E-Mail or CIX conferencing messages with the author field set to “Mac”.

IBM, Microsoft and AOL announce that it is very powerful, more so than Melissa and there is no remedy. It will eat all your cash and also destroy all of your personal possessions and furniture, bit by bit.

do not open anything with this author field and please pass this message on. Not many people seem to know about this yet so propagate it as fast as possible.

this information was announced yesterday morning by IBM. This is a very dangerous virus and there is no remedy for it at this time. Even latest virus update will NOT catch or destroy this virus and once infected, the virus will keep replicating itself until it fills all available space!

please pass this message on to all your friends.
