This was sent out by our worksite network admin. The people who sent this virus out are particularly sick.
A new virus worm is now circulating. The ``Vote Virus,'' is punctuated by strange grammar and a mix of lower- and upper-case letters, appears with the subject line: ''Peace between America and Islam!'' and the body of the e-mail reads: ``Hi. Is it a war against America or Islam!? Let's vote to live in peace!''
When the attachment entitled ``WTC.exe'' is opened, the virus tries to delete all the files on the computer's hard drive and sends copies of the e-mail to every address listed in the computer's address book.
While this virus is not wide spread yet, you should delete the e-mail and do not open the attachment. For more info:
