RE: UKNM: this may be a false alarm, but....

[Gary Hull]

As you can see by the flurry of e-mail on this string, these warnings *are* 

a type of virus.  They have been known to clog corporate e-mail systems 

while everybody forwards the message.


A valid warning should include a link to a reputable source.  But, since 

the pranksters also know this, they have sometimes provided links in order 

to cause network congestion at a target site.


As I point at the send button, I fully realize that I am yet another victim 

of this time-wasting e-mail virus.  My suggestion is that future recipients 

validate a warning before forwarding it.
