Virus Warning Recycling?

Virus Warni...!!!!!!!!!!.eml

This came into my inbox and appeared about eleven times with the same time mark:


"Emails with pictures of Osama Bin-Laden hanged are being sent and the
moment that you open these emails your computer will crash and you will
not be able to fix it!

If you get an email along the lines of 'Osama Bin Laden Captured'

or 'Osama Hanged' don't open the attachment.

This e-mail is being distributed through countries around the globe, but
mainly in the US and Israel .

Be considerate & send this warning to whomever you know.

PLEASE FORWARD THIS WARNING AMONG FRIENDS, FAMILY AND CONTACTS:


You should be alert during the next few days:
Do not open any message with an attached file called
'Invitation' regardless of who sent it.

It is a virus that opens an Olympic Torch which 'burns' the whole hard
disc of your computer.


This virus will be received from someone who has your e-mail address in
his/her contact list, that is why you should send this e-mail to all
your contacts.


It is better to receive this message 25 times than to receive the virus
and open it.


If you receive a mail called 'invitation', though sent by a friend, do
not open it and shut down your computer immediately.


This is the worst virus announced by CNN, it has been classified by
Microsoft as the most destructive virus ever.


This virus was discovered by McAfee yesterday, and there is no repair
yet for this kind of virus.

This virus simply destroys the Zero Sector of the Hard Disc, where the
vital information is kept.

SEND THIS E-MAIL TO EVERYONE YOU KNOW"


It was forwarded with an attach " Virus Warni...!!!!!!!!!!.eml " which could be a disguised double dot email such as used to be used to sent malignant Virus. Anyone know more?

It may be a timely warning, but does anyone have areal live one to inject back into the source of "Good site", What did the Teamsters do with sledge hammers to Scabs' fingers in that 'Frisco strike about a century ago.
