Last night, my mom calls, said she received an email from someone in her addybook, that said they think they may have sent her a virus, how to check for the file name, and then how to delete the file, because virus programs are not picking the virus up.
I told her to please tell me she hadn't followed the directions....but she had. I told her to stop....don't do anything else, and don't email that letter to anyone.

I checked into it on the Norton site...sure enough, it is a HOAX, and the file you end up deleting is a windows command file. **sigh** Mom, like so many others, was so scared her computer would crash, she probably would have deleted anything they told her to....
Norton addy to read about it is below...

Looks like I'll be spending the day repairing the file mom deleted in her computer....and giving her a more advanced lesson on virus protection and hoaxes....

Please pass this info along... specially to anyone you know who may not be all that 'up' on internet stuff...

**PLEASE NOTE**
I emailed Jeff B. and asked him if I could cross-post this info on many of the forums...and he gave me permission to do so, so the info could be passed along to as many people as possible.
