It's a Hoax People.....
If you get an e-mail saying

I'm passing this on for whatever it is worth.... New Virus
FOR THOSE THAT DON'T KNOW, "WTC" STANDS FOR THE WORLD TRADE
CENTER......WHICH MAKES THIS VIRUS REALLY DANGEROUS BECAUSE
PEOPLE WILL OPEN IT RIGHT AWAY.....THINKING ITS A STORY RELATING TO 9/11
BIGGGG TROUBLE !!!! DO NOT OPEN "WTC Survivor"
It is a virus that will erase your whole "C" drive. It will come to you in
the form of an E-Mail from a familiar person!! I repeat a friend sent it to
me, but called and warned me before I opened it.



Please do not pass it along to all your friends, it only propogates this socially engineered virus. If you really want to be a good net citizen, reply to the original poster to let them know that this is in fact another hoax..

My users have recieved the smackdown from me on this and a few others they KNOW better then to spread it further for fear of death... I used to just lock their internet down when ever they did something stupid, but I've found at you can put the fear of god in them if you send a net send and tell them that email/webpage/etc is not business related and could result in HR being notified.

actually, that's not the case. I received one e-mail from a user who thought it was a hoax but wanted to check.
Knowing from personal experience that A) it will PROBABLY be posted here and B) NO DOUBT my Mother will forward to me too, I thought I'd save some time and grief...

At least this one isn't telling people to delete Win.com or something ;)
