I usually don't post things like warnings about computer virusus, but this one sounded like a really BAD one!
It's called Badtimes--have you heard of it?

It will not only erase everything on your hard drive, but it will also delete anything on disks within 20 feet of your computer. It demagnetizes the strips on ALL of your credit cards. It reprograms your ATM access code, screws up the tracking on your VCR and uses subspace field harmonics to scratch any CDs you attempt to play-- except Yanni CDs. With them it doubles the volume.
It will automatically download nasty stuff to your hard drive and then notify the authorities.
It will re-calibrate your refrigerator's coolness settings so all your ice cream melts and your milk curdles.
It will program your phone auto dial to call only your mother-in-law's number.
This virus will mix antifreeze into your fish tank.
It will drink all your good beer.
It will leave dirty socks on the coffee table when you are expecting company.
It will order one truckload of steer by-product fertilizer dumped onto your neighbor's front yard and bill it to your Visa card-- the only card stripe it didn't demagnetize.
It will rewrite your backup files, changing all your active verbs to passive tense and incorporating undetectable misspellings which grossly change the interpretations of key sentences.
It will leave rowdy messages on your boss's answering machine - in your voice.
It will replace your shampoo with Nair and your Nair with Rogaine.
If the "Badtimes" message is opened in a Windows 95 environment, it will leave the toilet seat up and leave your hair dryer plugged in dangerously close to a full bathtub.
It will not only remove the forbidden tags from your mattresses and pillows, but it will also refill your skim milk with whole milk.
It will replace all your luncheon meat with beef tongue.
It will molecularly rearrange your cologne or perfume, causing it to smell like the steer by-product dumped onto your neighbor's yard.
It will give you Dutch Elm Disease.
It will give you nightmares about circus midgets.
It will put a liverwurst sandwich in the back pants pocket of your best suit.
It will cause you to run with scissors and throw things in a way that is only fun until someone loses an eye

It is insidious and subtle. It is dangerous and terrifying to behold. It is also a rather interesting shade of mauve. These are just a few signs of infection. Beware.
Be sure to notify all your friends, co-workers, relatives, and acquaintenances so that they can prepare to receive this virus, conveniently attached to your warning message.

My sister sent this to me, thought I'd share! Pretty cute?

I got three lines into it and searched - it's a hoax, don't worry about it.
Bad Times (computer virus hoax - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia)
then I read the rest of it, what a joke! HaHa!
