Nope not the flu bug that is circulating around but those malicious virus that cripples the entire PC system!
Naive (also read as STUPID) me actually tried to launch a photo file (with my email address listed even) sent by my cousin via MSN cos it looked so innocent ! When the file took a LONG time to launch and eventually Failed, I knew I was in big trouble.
Heard that this virus will continue to forward the supposedly photo file to EVERYONE in my contact list so under NO circumstances should you try to launch it okie.It will look quite authentic with a simple message "is that really you ?" followed by a web link with the receiver's email address.
Now that harm has been done, I need to get my IT folks (sigh.. bet they will lecture & nag) to help remove it asap otherwise I can NEVER launch MSN on my office laptop and I cannot imagine without that when I go on my business trip soon. How to survive those boring hours especially at night!! Sob sob ....
Keeping my fingers crossed ...
