Good Morning Group,
I received a message telling me to "DELETE ALL MESSAGES REQUESTING PENPAL
GREETINGS AND DO NOT DOWNLOAD ANY MESSAGE ENTITLED PENPAL GREETINGS".
Although it appears friendly, this is a virus that has the potential of
destroying hard drives, data and is self-replicating.  Additionally, it
automatically forwards itself to anyone whose e-mail address is present in
your mailbox.  It has the potential of doing terrible things worldwide and
is called the "Trojan Horse".  Please pass this message along to your
friends and I hope you haven't met up with it yet.  It's sad to think that
something that we look for as Librarians (penpals) could be used so
negatively.  Have a good day.
