important virus notice
_
If you receive an email entitled "Badtimes," delete it immediately. Do not open it. Apparently this one is pretty nasty. It will not only erase everything on your hard drive, but it will also delete anything on disks within 20 feet of your computer. It demagnetizes the stripes on ALL of your credit cards. It reprograms your ATM access code, screws up the tracking on your VCR and uses subspace field harmonics to scratch all the CD's you attempt to play. It will program your phone auto dial to call only 900 numbers. This virus will mix antifreeze into your fish tank. It will drink ALL your beer.
FOR GOD'S SAKE MAN, ARE YOU LISTENING?!!!! It will leave dirty socks on the coffee table when you are expecting company. It will replace your shampoo with Nair and your Nair with Rogaine, all the while dating your current boy/girlfriend behind your back and billing their hotel rendezvous to your Visa card. It will cause you to run with scissors and throw things in a way that is only fun until someone loses an eye.
It will rewrite your backup files, changing all your active verbs to passive tense and incorporating undetectable misspellings that grossly change the interpretations of key sentences. If the "Badtimes" message is opened in a Windows 95/98 environment, it will leave the toilet seat up and leave your hair dryer plugged in dangerously close to a full bathtub. It will not only remove the forbidden tags from your mattresses and pillows; it will also refill your skim milk with whole milk.
"WARN AS MANY PEOPLE AS YOU CAN.**
And if you don't send this to 5000 people in 20 seconds you'll fart so hard that your right leg will spasm, shoot straight out in front of you, sending sparks, that will ignite onto the person nearest you.
Send to everyone and warn them ASAP.
Do your friends and family this huge favor.

I remember getting an E-mail from a Non-techy Friend once, They warned me that this virus would blow up My monitor, and had been know for decapitating those who fell victim to it.. She Actually stayed away from her computer for two weeks Before we finally convinced her thats just not possible..
Of Course..One week later her monitor blew up in her face!
hehe, sorry, that last part was made up (or so my lawyer said)

LMFAO I almost didn't read this post because of the title. I have given up trying to explain to people how useless it is to warn others about viruses and that they should just update their AV and chill.I will be sure to pass this on to everyone on my list. LOL Thanks for tha laugh.

I don't get why people ignore all the obvious advice on viruses...we had one guy who infected the system with a virus...we cleaned it up...next day he did it AGAIN..He was popular.
Chodan-is that a Japanese term??
