Re: VIRUS ALERT (Feldman forward - this is a hoax)

[MarkVA39@xxxxxxx]

Hi all,

This "virus" warning is, in fact, a longstanding hoax.  If you follow the
instructions, you will indeed find the "Teddy Bear" icon.  By deleting it,
you will be deleting a Java script enabler.  This will have no effect
whatsoever on your computer unless you design pages using Java script, in
which case you'll have major problems.  But for everyone else, removal is
harmless.  There is no virus, however, so do not be concerned.

Further info can be found at: www.ciac.org.  When you are redirected to the
page, click on "Hoaxbusters" for information on the many and varied hoaxes
circulating on the net.

Best regards,
Mark
