    "Before sending the attachment to your recycle bin make sure you have reinforced the container, or the virus might crash right through the bottom of the bin making a hole in your desktop."

    Good thing I've replaced my bin with a stronger stainless steel one.

    It can also explain why I've felt like my laptop is getting heavier and heavier.....

    "The virus also poses a risk for the young and the elderly as they may be unable to lift the virus to delete it. There have already been three reported cases of senior citizens becoming trapped under the virus."

    ....hmmmm, I wonder if the people over at McAfee & Norton know about this....

    Oddly,
    Our local disposal company has STOPPED Accepting This Virus In Its Land Fill,, Something About concentrations Of This Level Upsetting The Planets Gravitational balance.
    Locally,, The Approved Method Of Transporting This Virus Is In A Ford F350 Pickup Truck With A Rhino Liner In The Bed,And A Sillycone Coated Canvas Tarp~!
    Its a 125 mile drive to the only disposal center in my area accepting this Virus,, BUT,, the Real Trick Is To Find a route With No Bridges That allows a 14 ton load.
    In Other Local Related news,, Due to the extreme weight of this virus, Sagging Phone Lines Have Become a real Danger,
    One Local was nearly strangled while walking between telephone poles,While Hunting Wabbits,,, MMmmmmm Woast Wabbit.
