with Norton Anti-Virus, and they are gearing
up for this
virus!
I checked Snopes (URL

, 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 contact list. This
is the reason why you need
to send this
e-mail to all your contacts It is better to
receive this
message
25 times than to
receive the virus 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

This is the worst

McAfee
yesterday, and there is no repair yet for this
