WARNING - SIMON SHAW VIRUS the nastiest virus yet...

June 25, 2009 8:21am CST
Just thought I'd start a discussion about this because I was warned about this in the last day or so. If you get an email from "Simon Shaw" DO NOT OPEN IT!!! It contains a virus that starts to hack into your computer, erase ALL of your files, history, photo's and everything AND any contacts within your computer instantly accesses and hacks into theirs and then their contacts etc....it just snowballs from there. It is rife in France and is just starting in the UK. So to reiterate...delete and do not open any emails from Simon Shaw. Please share any other viruses that you are aware of.

Sounds like what most of the viruses do. Nothing special, heard the warning about not opening mails from people you don't know for a long time now. I'm more concerned with sites that are infected with new viruses that try to find ways in.
