Old virusi returning

by jdclyde · 12 years ago In reply to Friday Yuk

VIRUS WARNING!!!

It has been brought to my attention that there's an insidious new computer virus which has already affected close to 30 million computers.

Even though I'm running the latest McAfee and Norton viri scans, neither have picked up this virus as it's a mutating virus which isn't set to go off until Friday, June 8, 2001.

As many viri are, this one is transmitted by email. I'm required by law to contact everyone that has received email from me in the last six months and warn them about this virus.

TO REMOVE THIS VIRUS BEFORE IT BECOMES EFFECTIVE:

** Click your start button.
** Click on "Find".
** Click on Files / Folders.
** Change the "look in" input box to "My Computer".
** The named input file should have: AOL.EXE

Once the find engine has located the file, highlight it and press the delete button.

Deleting this file will fix a damaged 30 megabyte area of your hard drive and restore it to full functionality.

WARNING: KEEPING THIS FILE ON THE SYSTEM AFTER JUNE 8 WILL COST YOU $2.90 MORE PER MONTH!

FAILURE TO REMOVE THIS FILE WILL KEEP YOUR "UPPER MEMORY MANAGEMENT" MODULE OF YOUR INTELLIGENCE QUOTIENT (IQ OVER 85) BLOCKED. DELETING AOL.EXE WILL FREE YOUR IQ TO GO ABOVE 85!!!

DELETING THIS FILE WILL ALLOW YOU TO SPELL CORRECTLY AND USE THE ENGLISH LANGUAGE PROPERLY.

BADLY INFECTED SYSTEMS (I.E., SYSTEMS THAT HAVE DESTROYED YOUR ABILITY TO FOLLOW THE SIMPLE INSTRUCTIONS ABOVE) CAN HAVE THE VIRUS REMOVED BY TELEPHONE. CALL 1-888-265-8008 AND TELL THE OPERATOR TO CANCEL THE VIRUS. THE OPERATOR WILL DEACTIVATE THE VIRUS FROM THEIR END.

TECHNICAL NOTE: YOU **MUST** EXPLAIN TO THE OPERATOR YOU'RE ATTEMPTING TO DEACTIVATE THE AOL.EXE VIRUS. THE TECHNICAL SUPPORT OFFICE YOU'RE TALKING TO IS EXTREMELY PROFESSIONALLY EMBARRASSED BY UNLEASHING THIS VIRUS ON THE WORLD AND WILL DELAY DEACTIVATING IT. FOR LEGAL REASONS, THEY MAY EVEN *DENY* THE EXISTENCE OF THE AOL.EXE VIRUS. DON'T FALL FOR THEIR STORY!

he counters.

6. Only in America.......do we leave cars worth thousands of dollars in the driveway and put our useless junk in the garage.

8. Only in America......do we buy hot dogs in packages of ten and buns in packages of eight.

EVER WONDER

Why the sun lightens our hair, but darkens our skin?

Why women can't put on mascara with their mouth closed?

Why don't you ever see the headline "Psychic Wins Lottery"?

Why is "abbreviated" such a long word?

Why is it that doctors call what they do "practice"?

Why is it that to stop Windows 98, you have to click on "Start"?

Why is lemon juice made with artificial flavor, and dishwashing liquid made with real lemons?

Why is the man who invests all your money called a broker?

Why is the time of day with the slowest traffic called rush hour?

Why isn't there mouse-flavored cat food?

When dog food is new and improved tasting, who tests it?

Why didn't Noah swat those two mosquitoes?

Why do they sterilize the needle for lethal injections?

You know that indestructible black box that is used on airplanes? Why don't they make the whole plane out of that stuff?

Why don't sheep shrink when it rains?

Why are they called apartments when they are all stuck together?

If con is the opposite of pro, is Congress the opposite of progress?

If flying is so safe, why do they call the airport the terminal?

by maecuff · 12 years ago In reply to And that Mae,

Unless, I am expressing an opinion about something while I'm applying mascara, then my mouth is probably open. I'm good at multi-tasking.

Lets see if I've got this right Mae

by HAL 9000 Moderator · 12 years ago In reply to An amendment

So you apply Mascara while talking and driving to work with a Hands Free Kit on the Mobile in the other ear. :0

Now is that what you are saying? ?

Yep that's Multitasking and it's good that you can do it but how many collisions are you involved in per day? More importantly of those other drivers that you collide with how many survive your shovel when you are obviously in the wrong? I know you are just protecting yourself and it's quite understandable. B-)

Just one favour here will you please let me know when & where you'll be driving anytime of the day so I can avoid you completely? ;\

Now, Col

by maecuff · 12 years ago In reply to Lets see if I've got this ...

Did I say driving? No...I said voicing an opinion. I NEVER apply makeup while driving. And I don't talk on my cell either. In fact, whenever I see people driving while on the phone, I want to run them off the road so that they don't hurt anyone. :)

Well in that case Mae

by HAL 9000 Moderator · 12 years ago In reply to Now, Col

I think that I can arrange to have a shovel firing weapon delivered to you so you can use this to decapitate those you catch driving and talking on the phone at the same time.

As it's a Top Secret Prototype I can always claim that you are Field Testing it for us just to see how accurate the sights are. :^0

Don't mention this to anyone and I'll post it when the Post Office opens Saturday My Time as it's nearly midnight now here.

Enjoy the testing and I'll throw in a couple of thousand rounds of ammunition just for you to play with. :0
