A colleague got an e-mail last week which described the Klez virus and then
tried to convince the reader to open the attached file, claiming it was a
program which could help in warding of the virus. That's pretty skummy!

Subject: Re: Hoax virus was Re: more worms
I got a warning about that hoax at work. That's really dirty! With all
these real viruses doing real damage, somebody takes advantage of people's
ignorance and has them deleting part of their system. With all these
viruses going around, I sometimes wonder if the antivirus software vendors
perhaps write viruses in their spare time so they can sell more software?
Maybe I'm being paranoid, but there are just too many viruses out there to
be believed! Between that and spam, I'm just about to lose my mind!
