Hi All, a friend checked with Norton Anti-Virus, and they are gearing up for this virus!

He checked Snopes and it is for real!!

 

Get this E-mail message sent around to your contacts ASAP.

PLEASE FORWARD THIS WARNING AMONG FRIENDS, FAMILY AND CONTACTS!

 

You should be alert during the next few days. Do not open any message with an attachment entitled 'POSTCARD FROM HALLMARK,' regardless of who sent it to you. It is a virus which opens A POSTCARD IMAGE, which 'burns' the whole hard disc C of your computer. This virus will be received from someone

who has your e-mail address in his/her con tact list. This is the reason why you need to send this e-mail to all your contacts It is better to receive this mess age 25 times than to receive the v irus and open it.

 

If you receive a mail called' POSTCARD,' even though sent to you by a friend, do not open it! Shut down your computer immediately.

 

This is the worst virus announced by CNN. It has been classified by

Microsoft as the most destructive virus ever. This virus was discovered by McAfee yesterday, and there is no repair yet for this kind of virus. This virus simply destroys the Zero Sector of the Hard Disc, where the vital information is kept.

 

COPY THIS E-MAIL, AND SEND IT TO YOUR FRIENDS. REMEMBER: IF YOU SEND IT

TO THEM, YOU WILL BENEFIT ALL OF US.

From Snopes..

 

"Although the Postcard virus is real, it isn't a "BIG VIRUS COMING" (it's already been around in multiple forms for a long time now), it will not "burn the whole hard disc" of your computer, CNN didn't classify it as the "worst virus" ever, and it doesn't arrive in messages bearing a subject line of "Invitation".

Male Date Rape Drug

 

Police warn all male clubbers, party-goers and unsuspecting pub regulars to be alert and stay cautious when offered a drink from a woman.

 

A new date rape drug on the market, called "beer", is being used by females to target unsuspecting men. The drug is generally found in liquid form, and is available almost anywhere. "Beer" is sometimes used by female sexual predators at parties and bars to convince their male victims to go home and have sex with them.

 

Typically, a woman needs only to persuade a guy to consume a few units of "beer" and then simply ask him home for no-strings attached sex. Men are helpless against this approach: After several "beers" men often succumb to desires to perform sexual acts with women to whom they would usually not be attracted. Men often awaken after being given "beer" with only hazy memories of exactly what happened the night before, just a vague feeling something bad occurred.

 

Some unfortunate men report having been trapped in a familiar scam known as "a relationship." Apparently men are easy victims for this scam after "beer" is administered and they've been sexually approached previously.

 

Please! Forward this warning to every male you know. If you should fall victim to this insidious "beer" and the predatory women plying it, there are male Support groups in most towns where you can discuss the details of your shocking encounter in an open and frank manner with similarly-affected, like-minded guys.
