                  VERY IMPORTANT - BIG VIRUS COMING !!! PLEASE READ & FORWARD !!! 

                  Snopes lists all the names it could come in. 

                     Hi All, I checked with Norton Anti-Virus, and they are gearing up for this virus! 

                  I checked Snopes, and it is for real!! 

                  Get this E-mail message sent around to your contacts ASAP. 

                  PLEASE FORWARD THIS WARNING AMONG FRIENDS, FAMILY AND CONTACTS! 

                  You should be alert during the next few days. Do not open any message with an attachment entitled 'POSTCARD FROM HALLMARK' , regardless of who sent it to you. 

                  It is a virus which opens A POSTCARD IMAGE - it 'burns' the entire hard disc C. 

                   This virus will be received from someone who has your e-mail address in their contact list. 

                   This is the reason why you must send this e-mail to all your contacts. It is better to receive this message multiple times  than to receive the virus and open it. 

                   If you receive mail called ' POSTCARD ', even though sent to you by a friend, do not open it! Shut down your computer immediately. 

                   This is the worst virus announced by CNN. It has been classified by Microsoft as the most destructive virus ever. 

                    McAfee discovered this virus yesterday, and there is no repair yet for this kind of virus. 

                   This virus destroys the Zero Sector of the Hard Disc, where the vital information is kept. 

                  COPY THIS E-MAIL TO YOUR FRIENDS.  REMEMBER: IF YOU SEND IT ON, YOU WILL BENEFIT ALL OF US
