Yahoo messenger has one like that going around...all it takes is for one person to click on the link and it sends it to everyone on their friends list...it will also look like it came from you.\n\nThe best you can do is to warn your friends not to open any links from you until they askesd if you sent it first.

definitely spam, and a lot of these carry spyware or viruses so be careful when you open them and never follow any of the links in them.

IMPORTANT - NEW VIRUS ALERT!!!\n\n\n\n\nThere is a dangerous virus being passed\nelectronically, orally and by hand. This virus is called\nWorm-Overload-Recreational-Killer (WORK). If\nyou receive WORK from any of your colleagues, your\nboss or anyone else via any means DO NOT TOUCH IT.\n\n\nThis virus will wipe out your private life completely.\nIf you should come into contact with WORK put your\njacket on and take two good friends to the nearest pub.\n\n\nPurchase the antidote known as Work-Isolator-Neutralizer-Extractor (WINE).\n\n\nTake the antidote repeatedly until WORK has been completely eliminated\nfrom your system. You should forward this warning to 5 friends. If you do\nnot have 5 friends, you have already been infected and WORK is\ncontrolling your life.\n\n\n\n\nUpdate: After extensive testing it has been concluded that\nBest-Equivalent-Extractor-Remedy (BEER) may be\nsubstituted for WINE but may require a more generous application.\n\n\n\n\nOne day, a man came home and was greeted by his wife dressed in a very sexy\nnightie. "Tie me up," she purred, "and you can do anything you want."\n\nSo he tied her up and went golfing.\n\n    ***********************************************\n\nA woman came home, screeching her car into the driveway, and ran into the\nhouse. She slammed the door and shouted at the top of her lungs, Honey, pack\nyour bags. I won the damn lottery!"\n\nThe husband said, "Oh my God! What should I pack, beach stuff or mountain\nstuff?   "Doesn't matter," she said. "Just get the hell out of here."\n\n    ***********************************************\n\nMarriage is a relationship in which one person is always right, and the\nother is a husband.

What ever you do, do NOT open the link by clicking on it in the email. If you really want to see the site, cut and paste it into your browser. \n\nYou can get all kinds of imps and demons (read viruses) in your computer by clicking directly on a link in an email from somebody you don't know personally.

Yes. A virus can replicate itself. Run a virus scan and delete all virus thru there.

Do you REALLY think we're going to sit here and tell you how to unleash a virus on someone else's computer?  Get real.  Of course, I'm sure someone else on here will be harebrained enough to answer your question, but it won't be me.

Yes, it does I just learned that the other day when my computer got infected by two different virus, Malware wipe and Virusburst. I downloaded the night before my computer went haywire, Just be careful of what you download, people could be sharing music and movies from their infected computers and are passing it on to others who download. Make sure you have a few good Antivirus programs cause my Norton alone didn't work to block them. It's really up to you.
