Internet hoax.

I had a friend several years ago who recieved an email telling him of a very serious computor virus and told him to check to see if his computer had a certain file. Well he checked, sent everyone in his email list a warning and told them if they found the same file to delete it.

Well to make a long story short the file was an important part of the system and once deleted the computer shut down..

Indeed.

FR has some very smart and insightful people, but apparently we have our share of the gullible.
