<< 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 any CD's you attempt to play.
It will re-calibrate your refrigerator's coolness settings so all your ice
cream melts and your milk curdles.
It will program your phone auto dial to call only your mother-in-law's
number.
This virus will mix antifreeze into your fish tank.
It will drink all your beer.
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
while dating your current boy/girl friend 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 which 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.
FOR GOD'S SAKE, WARN AS MANY PEOPLE AS YOU CAN! >>
