The “C-Nile Virus”

Someone forward an email to me today that was kind of funny. I’m not old enough to worry about these things yet, but have definitely seen my more senior co-workers and family members do this (sometimes regularly).


I thought you would want to know about this e-mail virus. Even the most advanced programs from Norton or McAfee cannot take care of this one. It appears to affect those who were born prior to 1965 …..

Symptoms:

  1. Causes you to send the same e-mail twice
  2. Causes you to send a blank e-mail
  3. Causes you to send e-mail to the wrong person
  4. Causes you to send it back to the person who sent it to you
  5. Causes you to forget to attach the attachment
  6. Causes you to hit “SEND” before you’ve finished
  7. Causes you to hit “DELETE” instead of “SEND”
  8. Causes you to hit “SEND” when you should “DELETE”

IT IS CALLED THE “C-NILE VIRUS.”
