Uh-oh... virus hoax alert... as always, a search on
Google for the name of the supposed virus yields a
plethora of links debunking the warning.

As far as I could tell, though, the admonition to spam
the hell out of your friends with it is a new twist,
it didn't appear in any of the examples on the
anti-virus vendor sites.
