I ONCE LECTURED about viruses to a small group of businessmen in 1991. A network administrator stood up at one point and proclaimed his company (a law firm) would literally close its doors for good “if a destructive virus of any type gets on our system.” They would sell the office equipment; the secretaries would find new jobs; the lawyers would take their filing cabinets to other firms. The company would fold if even one destructive virus infiltrated their network.

Shocked by his statement (and trying to regain control of the lecture), I asked what would happen if fire swept through the firm's building. No sweat: they kept backups off-site and had purchased contingency contracts for just such emergencies. I responded, “Well, there you go. If a virus ever gets on your computers, burn your building to the ground and your problem is solved!”

The audience laughed — but I fumed. I would fire this man on the spot if he worked for my company! I don't want anyone on my payroll who would instantly put everyone out of work due to his own pompous ignorance.

Tee Hee, thats pretty funny, this is on this page

Remember the virus scare back in May, about the SULFNBK.EXE file which just happened to be the same name as a file on the windows system? Well I was reading up on it, mainly cuz I had a late bloomer who decided to get around to deleting the windows file and wrote me about it, but here is one sites translation of that particular email concerning the virus HOAX.

The correct translation
If we translate the sulfnbk.exe chain letter for the real world, it would read as follows:

I went to the place where I work, and I shouted, and guess what? I got a response. Creepy! I reloaded twice just to be sure. Trust me, you need to follow these instructions.

1) Go to the place where you work.

2) Shout out, 'can anyone hear me?'

3) If you get a response, shoot to kill — it's a homicidal maniac!

4) Well, actually, he's not a maniac yet. That's why the police can't help you. But he'll turn into a homicidal maniac on June 1. Shoot him! Do it right now! Better safe than sorry!

5) Good news: you killed the homicidal maniac. Bad news: everyone you spoke to in the last few months now has a homicidal maniac at work. Warn all of your friends!

BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
That's friggin great, and for those of you that need a bit more back ground here's the site I found it.
