I ordinarily wouldn't pay any attention to these but this is too frightening :)
If you receive an email entitled "Badtimes," delete it immediately. Do not
open it. Apparently this one is pretty nasty. It
will not only erase everything on your hard drive, but it will also delete
anything on disks within 20 feet of your computer. It
demagnetizes the stripes on all of your credit cards. It reprograms your ATM
access code, screws up the tracking on your VCR and uses subspace
field harmonics to scratch any CDs you attempt to play. It will program your
phone auto dial to call only your mother-in-law's number.
This virus will mix antifreeze into your fish tank. It will drink all your
beer . (For Gods sake are you listening?!?!) It will feed your dog
poison.
It will leave dirty socks on the coffee table when you are expecting
company. It will replace your shampoo with Nair and your Nair with
Rogaine, all the while dating your current boy/girlfriend behind your back
and billing their hotel reservations to your Visa card. It will
cause you to run with scissors and throw things in a way that is only fun
until someone loses an eye. It will rewrite your backup files,
changing all your active verbs to passive tense and incorporating
undetectable misspellings which grossly change the interpretations of
key sentences.
If the "Badtimes" message is opened in a Windows 95/98 environment, it will
leave the toilet seat up and leave your hair dryer plugged in
dangerously close to a full bathtub. It will not only remove the forbidden
tags from your mattresses and pillows, it will also refill
your skim milk with whole milk.
**WARN AS MANY PEOPLE AS YOU CAN.**
And if you don't send this to 5000 people in 20 seconds you'll fart so hard
that your right leg will spasm, shoot straight out in front of you,
sending sparks, that will ignite onto the person nearest you.
