  Got a email warning me of the PC virus :
  
  Please Be Extremely Careful especially if using internet mail such as Yahoo, Hotmail, and so on.
  
  This information arrived this morning from Microsoft and Norton. Please send it to everybody you know who accesses the Internet.
  
  You may receive an apparently harmless email with a Power Point presentation " Life is beautiful. pps".
  
  If you receive it DO NOT OPEN THE FILE UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES , and delete it immediately.
  
  if you open this 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 gain access to your name, e-mail and password.
  
  This is a new virus ! which started to circulate on Saturday afternoon WE NEED TO DO EVERYTHING POSSIBLE TO STOP THIS VIRUS.
  
  Known antivirus Software's are not capable of destroying it. The virus has been created by a hacker who calls himself " life owner".
  
  real or hoax?
