The 'How to Give a Cat A Colonic' Virus Hoax

        Don't want anyone hit if this is for real.  Judi

        Subject: Warning......

        If you receive an e-mail entitled, "How to Give a
        Cat a Colonic," DO NOT open it. It will erase
        everything on your hard drive.

        Forward this letter out to as many people as you
        can.

        This is a new, very malicious virus and not many
        people know about it

        This information was announced yesterday morning
        from IBM.

        Please share it with everyone that might access the
        Internet. Once again, pass this along to EVERYONE in
        your address book so that this may be stopped.  AOL
        has said that this is a very dangerous virus and
        that there is NO remedy for it at this time.  Please
        practice cautionary measures and forward this to all
        your online friends ASAP
 We frequently see a number of bogus authorities cited in these virus hoaxes. But I always chuckle when AOL is listed as an authority. Does anyone seriously expect to consult AOL on new viruses? (!)
