This one is the Mother of them All!
If you receive an e-mail titled "Badtimes", delete it immediately! Do Not open it! It will not only erase everything on your hard drive, but it will delete everything within 20 feet of your computer.
It will demagnetize the strips on your credit cards, reprogram your ATM access codes, screw up the tracking on your VCR and use subspace field harmonics to scratch any CD you attempt to play.
It will program your telephone's autodial to call only your mother-in-law; it will drink all your beer; it will leave dirty socks on the coffee table when you are expecting company; and it will give you Dutch elm disease.
It is insidious and subtle; it is also an interesting shade of mauve.
