hey everyone...
There is a new virus floating around called PrettyPark.exe. It's not a hoax -
it's a real virus. Several people on some of the mailing lists I subscribe to
have gotten it and been infected. I received three e-mails with the virus
attached. It's an .exe file that is a worm virus - if you run the program
(DON'T) what it does is runs itself and sends out e-mails (with the virus
attached) to everyone in your address book.
The title of the e-mail was C:\CoolProgs\Pretty Park.exe so if you see it,
just delete it. It only infects if you download it and run it. AS ALWAYS, be
entirely suspicious of any attachments you get --- especially .exe files. An
.exe file is a program - meaning when you open it, it will actually do
something to your computer. Basically the best rule of thumb is to just
ignore .exe files - don't download them and don't open them.
beware...

"In the past hundred years issues like rape and incest are being criticized
for the first time. Women are allowed to work, have an independent life and
can refuse sex.Such an attitude does have its influence on men as well.
Sometimes they can't get their penis up for strong women. But it can turn
around in sexual abuse as well. Sometimes after the show children tell me
they're in an incestuous situation. When they say it's God's will, I can cut
the culprit's throat. Abuse isn't what God was talking about. Absolutely not.
Fuck God's will."
