Just like the rest of you, I recieved an e-mail hoax from the
gtf-mailinglist.  For those who  didn't understand that this so called
e-mail virus is a hoax, I would like to inform you that the things this
virus is supposed to do, is not possible. 

The e-mail is totally harmless, except for the fact that it is spread
around like "spam" by unknowledgeable persons, and it gives many people
unecessary concern. To emphasize my point, I've found a couple og websites
which explains the whole thing :)

Check them out and don't be fooled again :)
