PLEASE INFORM EVERYONE

Emails with pictures of Osama Bin-Laden hanged are being sent and the moment that you open these emails your computer will crash and you will not be able to fix it!

If you get an email along the lines of 'Osama Bin Laden Captured'

or 'Osama Hanged' don't open the attachment.

This e-mail is being distributed through countries around the globe .

Be considerate & send this warning to whomever you know.

PLEASE FORWARD THIS WARNING AMONG FRIENDS, FAMILY AND CONTACTS:

You should be alert during the next days:

Do not open any message with an attached filed called

'Invitation' regardless of who sent it.

It is a virus that opens an Olympic Torch 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, that is why you should 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 'invitation', though sent by a friend, do not open it and 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.

Is this for real

Bullshit!

Try at least a quick we search to see if it's a hoax before reposting this crap.

Old news... see urban legends and hoax-slayer.

Then I vote for it's removal - pure B/S we don't need

Sorry - guess I fell for it, received it just now from friend in IT industry so did not question it. He is going to get payback.

Very old use, it takes just 10 seconds to verify whether this is for real or what. Seems like not many people try to do some research and are in a hurry to post the old news or even hoaxes.

Well at least everybody now knows its a hoax if they receive it and can not send it on. There were about 500 email adresses it was forwarded to in the copy I received.

OK... no harm done.

At least more people are wiser now, and there's no point in letting this thread continue.
