Subject:Re: Virus Warning; It's a hoax letter, folks.

Sorry for the additional noise, but the email forwarded to the list is a
known hoax email. You can see the hoax report here:

ml

In general, the responsible thing when receiving a message like this in your
inbox is to visit the following page:

http://securityresponse.symantec.com/

Before forwarding to people. There're reference links at the bottom for
Hoaxes and Virus Encyclopedia. Even easier, simply click the Search button,
and then check the "Viruses, Trojan horses, Worms and Macros" box. Put in
the subject of the email, and you'll find out whether you're dealing with a
virus or a hoax. This one's 2 years old.
