The "Guts to say 'Jesus'" Hoax

VIRUS WARNING !!!!!!!
       If you receive an email titled "It Takes Guts to Say 'Jesus,'" 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.
 From this point on, the hoax contains text from the old "Undelivered Mail" hoax: 
       Also, do not open or even look at any mail
       that says "RETURNED OR UNABLE TO DELIVER." This  virus will
       attach itself to your computer components and render them
       useless.  Immediately delete any mail items that say this.
Now the hoax tries to claim some legitimacy by referring to AOL:
        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.  There is no such thing as a virus with no remedy. And yet again we see the classic hoax sign; a request to "forward this to all your online friends". Anytime you see this in an email, you can assume that the message is a hoax!  

Varianti :

       I have verified this from an internet hoax verification site.
       This one is real..awareness is everything..

       This one has been verified by GE corp IT group.
 Please note that checking with a hoax site (such as the one you are on now) will show ONLY the most common hoaxes.  No site can list every hoax (there are hundreds of hoaxes that never get wide distribution). The fact that a hoax is not listed does not mean it's legitimate. 
       It appears to be real. All Email users, If you receive an email
       titled "It Takes Guts to Say 'Jesus'" 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

       do not open or even look at any mail that says "RETURNED OR
       UNABLE TO DELIVER." This virus will attach itself to your
       computer components >> >>>and render them useless. Immediately
