["Stars" <stars@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

I would like to see the links that tell about this virus.  I have searched
CNN, McAfee, Microsoft and Symantec web sites for notices about this virus
and found none.  Did you here about it on TV?  I use Symantec and they don't
have a update to protect against it.

Read and update your virus protection. Sorry for posting this to my mail 
list, however this is important as the damage will destroy your 
computer's hard drive.
