To all concerned,

I am embarrassed to say that I have been further informed that the information 
below is apparently false. This info came from an IS dept, not just something 
picked up on the net. I guess this is one of those examples of when you've 
pressed the button, what's done is done. However, maybe better safe than sorry. 
 My apologies.   Sam

If you receive an email titled "It Takes Guts to Say 'Jesus'" DO NOT open it. 
It will erase everything on your hard drive. Forward this letter out to as many 
people as you can. This is a new, very malicious virus and not many people know 
about it. This information was announced yesterday morning from IBM; please 
share it with everyone that might access the Internet. Once again, pass this 
along to EVERYONE in your address book so that this may be stopped. Also, do 
not open or even look at any mail that says "RETURNED OR UNABLE TO DELIVER." 
This virus will attach itself to your computer components and render them 
useless.
Immediately delete any mail items that say this.
AOL has said that this is a very dangerous virus and that there is NO remedy 
for it.
