actually... If this is the one I read about... it's not a virus. You have to <BR>
download a program and agree to the User License. This says that <BR>
they are going to use your address book and mail a copy of the <BR>
program/greeting card to everyone you know. If they want to view the <BR>
card, they have to agree to send the card to everyone they know...etc. <BR>
More like a worm... but the user has to be dumb enough to agree to <BR>
the terms. <BR>
