[DEMUG] I recieved this warning from a friend.

[Patricia Sharp]

Isn't it possible that someone else wants to give it a try? I',m also not sure if it would affect a mac intel duo?
That said...hotmail.conm has not worked well for me for about 9 months? a year?  ( after 8 years of trouble free use) Ever since I had to download Firefox to access it. and they changed the look of it made it work LESS efficiently!
My sister in law isn't etting my e-mails at all ( and we need to communicate about a forthcoming surgery for my Mother)
But I get all these adds colon cleanser ik, govt auctioned stuff,  + the Atlanta Journal COnstitution 3 or 4 times daily  withnews flashs about sports figures or criminal activity in Atlanta ( could care less) ANd about 6 other newpaps=[ers y=es I wanted some of them a little less than they ae giving me  . But then  a delivery confirmation ( UPS) from a company I have been buying  from regularly, for 40 years the last 7 on line, gets thrown in the junk mail!
I don't have time to shop for a better e-mail now, but going to FLa. I have to comunicate with the world, via a PC computer not a mac!

Actually, if you check Snopes it is a hoax which has been around since 2002, but which has recently arisen again.

 Anyone-using Internet mail such as Yahoo, Hotmail, AOL and so on.

This information arrived this morning, Direct from both Microsoft and
Norton. 
Please send it to everybody you know who has access t o the Internet.

You may receive an apparently harmless e-mail titled "Mail Server Report"

If you open either file, a message will appear on your screen saying:
'It is too late now, your life is no longer beautiful.'

Subsequently you will LOSE EVERYTHING IN YOUR PC, And the person who
sent it to you will gain access to your name, e-mail and password.

This is a new virus which started to circulate on Saturd ay afternoon.
AOL has already confirmed the severity, and the anti virus software's
are not capable of destroying it.

The virus has been created by a hacker who calls himself 'life owner'.

PLEASE SEND A COPY OF THIS E-MAIL TO ALL YOUR FRIENDS, And ask them to
PASS IT ON IMMEDIATELY!

THIS HAS BEEN CONFIRMED BY SNOPES
