    don't pass it along, it's a hoax. Use common sense. Do your research.

    1. There is a new virus - WOBBLER. It will arrive on e-mail titled
    CALIFORNIA. IBM and AOL have announced that it is very powerful, more so
    than Melissa, there is no remedy. It will eat all your information on the
    hard drive and also destroys Netscape Navigator and Microsoft Internet
    Explorer. Do not open anything with this title and please pass this message
    on to all your contacts and anyone who uses your e-mail facility. Not many
    people seem to know about this yet so propagate it as fast as possible.

    2. If you receive an e-mail titled "Win A. Holiday" DO NOT open it. It
    will erase everything on your hard drive.

    This is a new, very malicious virus and not many people know about it. This
    information was announced yesterday morning from Microsoft.
