It will arrive on " A new HOAX has surfaced called the " WOBBLER " . The typical message reads as follows: Dear All, For your reference, take necessary precautions. If you receive an email with a file called California, do not open the file. The file contains WOBBLER virus. WARNING This information was announced yesterday morning from IBM; AOL states that this is a very dangerous virus, much worse than " Melissa " , and that there is NO remedy for it at this time. Some very sick individual has succeeded in using the reformat function from Norton Utilities causing it to completely erase all documents on the hard drive. It has been designed to work with Netscape Navigator and Microsoft Internet Explorer. It destroys Macintosh and IBM compatible computers. This is a new, very malicious virus and not many people know about it. Please ignore any messages regarding this " hoax " and do not pass on any messages regarding it. Passing on messages about this hoax serves only to further propagate it. " Talk to your friends online with Messenger. http://im. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
