Yesterday I received an attachment on an email entitled pretty park.  It
is indeed a trojan horse virus called pretty worm.  McAfee Anti virus
did find it for me, but after my computer had already crashed.  The
virus will replicate itself and go out to all on your email list.

IF ANY OF YOU RECEIVE AN EMAIL FROM ME WITH AN ATTACHMENT, DO NOT OPEN
IT.     IT IS VERY DIFFICULT TO DELETE AND IT CORRUPTS THE
C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM\FILES32.VXD FILE.  I SPENT OVER 5 HOURS RESTORING
FILES YESTERDAY NOT KNOWING THE PROBLEM.  NOT SURE WHAT TO DO TO DAY,
EXCEPT TO WARM EVERYONE ON MY EMAIL LIST.  PLEASE BE CAREFUL.
