Finnish anti-virus firm sends virus to customers by mistake


I knew it! I knew the Anti-Virus software makers were behind the sudden influx of Virus attacks!
An article on Yahoo about a Finnish anti-virus firm states: Finnish Internet security company F-Secure said that due to human error at its London office thousands of its customers in Britain had received emails from the company infected by a virus.
The incident, which happened on February 26, was a huge embarrassment to the group, considered to be among the world's leading anti-virus firms, officials admitted.
"It was a major blunder, and obviously something that should never happen

Yeah right, do you believe them?

Look at this sneaky e-mail I got just this morning :
Quote:
Dear user of Pocketpcaddict.com e-mail server gateway,
Your e-mail account will be disabled because of improper using in next three days, if you are still wishing to use it, please, resign your account information.
Please, read the attach for further details.
For security reasons attached file is password protected. The password is "68320".
Cheers,
The Pocketpcaddict.com team http://www.pocketpcaddict.com
Let's see here, first I will be disabled due to "improper using" and this "pocketpcaddict team" outranks me (the owner of the email "gateway") have the nerve to end the letter with "Cheers"
I'll be sure and read the "attach" for further details...
This email is further evidence that virus writers are men who have reached adulthood and never kissed a girl.
