Hi! How are you?

I send you this file in order to have your advice

See you later. Thanks

There are also variations, and a Spanish version. Just a reminder to everyone - NEVER OPEN .EXE ATTACHMENTS - from anyone! I never open .exe files that are emailed to me, even if I know the person who is sending it.

I have recently been getting this virus too.
I too delete any .exe's. This worm is really annyoing.
I just hope it ends soon..

I got 80 emails with that and guess what mine were 2 megabytes each 80 X 2 = 160 megabytes

*send ye a e-mail mikey1@snet.net *

Its on IRC too, you get memos saying to go somewhere and d/l this and that. Why don't you people use filters? My filter throws everything away that has a .exe file attachment in it.

If it happens anymore to you just check the box and click block sender and it will take you to a page that says block all incoming mail from this address, check that box and you will be safe

Ok Hotmail is by far the worst e-mail service EVER, unsecure servers, they are hacked every single day, they do a terrible job of setting up their servers, as I checked out their test servers when they put them up online. I would change to some other service.

I seem to be one of the lucky bastards who didn't recieve it (yet)...

Can you guess what this is? bet you cant!

It's a microchip segasonic.

Anyway, there's yet another one going around
that says "check out my new website (so-and-so)"
and it has a link (or broken link) to some website and if you try to mail them back it says they aren't even a member! I don't even have online buddies and I get them! I learned never to click on a link sent by a stranger (especially one who says they know you but are dead wrong) because the website probably has a virus.

all i wanna say is thanks for posting something on that virus. i got it in my mail today, and if you hadnt said something about it, i probly would have opened it out of pure curiousity / stupidity. thanks again...peace.....

I've never had the virus but I'm just wonderin is there a subject to it?

GAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!! SHIT SHIT SHIT SHIT!!!!!! GAHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!
I have to switch emails cause of this putrid leech! GAHHHH! I have more than 2000 emails, in my, yourname@whatever.com box. They're sent bye this dude, achillies209@ something.com cant remember the server. All of which are worthless fucking viruses, the first one I got nearly shot my comp. to hell! Thanx tom, without knowing its name I wouldn't have been able to shoot the wurm to hell. HAHAHAHAHHHAAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH!Now, heres the tough shit. My current e-mail only portraiez 5 emails at a time, now with over 2000 in there, its gunna be hell and back and then back again cause you forgot your wallet, mmk?

So I'll be using Hotmail with my olde address, and let you tell you this...Ima kill dat fat muthafucka who swing mah whay!

Also, watch out for the HEY YOU! virus.
It sends you an e-mail that says
"Open the attached to see pictures of me"
Then it fucks up your AOL and sends it's self to all your buddies.

Hey, Tom, thanx alot for tellin everyone. Sorry, you got all that junk mail. :( I got an email this morning with that virus, and I bombed that b!tch's e-mail! I do things the old fashioned way :). Hehe... I could've never done this without that idiot's email, Tom's warning, and Methodus Toolz 2.0!!!! (i sent like 1000 emails to her/him)

i'll say- in australia its called 'big huey'-same thing, different name. what asswad thought it was funny- i dunno, some people are losers.

i think the virsu sender is a NG user!he knows mikey and stuff!

Hi! How are you?

I send you this file in order to have your advice

I almost got this virus but i read your post on newgrounds so i deleted it. God bless ya Tom!

I leave you all with this:

a couple of weeks ago i asked myself... why do these little children go bonkers over pokemon? so i decided to buy the game and see whats the deal... and let me tell you... if you wanna good game... DONT BUY THIS ONE!!! jeez it was the MOST retarded game i have ever played! dont even THINK about buying this game! thank God for funcoland, cause i sold that game back in a flash... go blow your money on a GOOD game like, a final fantasy game... or a nice shootemup game. but whatever you do D-O-N-T B-U-Y T-H-A-T G-A-M-E!!!!!!

Haven't you guys noticed??...all these e-mail viruses work through Microsoft Outlook Express! It's a Microsoft product for cryin' out loud! Netscape Messenger hardly EVER has problems with e-mail viruses...and if you don't have a f^cking anti-virus progg, F^CKING GET ONE...godd@mn! No DuH! It's like driving around in a car with no f^ckin' insurance! If you own a computer (umm...yep, that's true)...and you have access to the Internet (umm...uh-huh)...THEN YOU NEED ANTI-VIRUS SOFTWARE! I-D-I-O-T-S Phuk! All o' you who don't have one already must have a nail stuck inside your head so your brain cells can't function correctly. You all make me wanna bash your heads against a brick wall...not once but several times. Argh.

i especially pissed of wiv this gay virus because i opened my inbox and looked there was about three or four of these messages saying the poofy quote i send to fr advice or something gay like that,i would luv to get a flamthrower go up to the guy who created it put it up to his face a pull the trigger and incinerate his face!!!!!!! mwha ha ha ha ha.

yeah, tell me about it!!
I got it several times from people that I don't even know
they probably have me on their spam lists to send me unwanted porno~~ I get that all the time and it is so annoying! do you have any anti-porno-software that I can use to block these emails, or am I just going to have to continue pressing the "block" button?
me so lazy, hehe
