A familiar virus is re-circulating called the UPS, FedEx, or USPS Delivery Failure.
You will receive an e-mail from UPS, FedEx, or USPS along with a package number. It will say that they were unable to deliver a package sent to you on such-and-such a date.
It then asks you to print out the invoice copy attached. DON'T TRY TO PRINT THIS. IT LAUNCHES THE VIRUS!

It never hurts to be aware of tricks to have you open potentially dangerous viruses. When in doubt just delete the e-mail.
Thanks for the heads up Boss
It's probably some pimple faced kid who gets his jollys from programming such tripe. I guess I'll never understand the reason.
At that age I was mainly interested in women. Times have changed. :rolleye:
Long as it ain't Semp I feel safe enough :laf: :laf:.
In todays world our personal computers hold all our personal data and our lively hoods rely on the Moriarty of that information. A computer crash can effect people in alot of cases as a death in the immediate family and take just as long or longer to get over.
So that being said they should treat these guy/gals that intrude and destroy so many peoples lives/businesses as a murderer. This would curve some of the bullshit virus makers out there if huge prison sentences were imposed.
