It is a virus that opens an Olympic Torch which "burns" the whole
hard disc C of your computer.. This virus will be received from
someone who has your e-mail address in his/her contact list, that is
why you should send this e-mail to all your contacts. It is better to
receive this message 25 times than to receive the virus and open it.

friend, do not open it and shut down your computer immediately. This
is the worst Virus announced by CNN, it has been classified by
Microsoft as the most destructive virus ever. This virus was
discovered by McAfee yesterday, and there is no repair yet for this
kind of virus. This virus simply destroys the Zero Sector of the Hard
Disc, where the vital information is kept.
