I have to admit to being a bit sceptical about these but here goes.........

Hi All, this has been checked with Norton Anti-Virus, and they are gearing up for this virus!
and it is for real!!
Get this E-mail message sent around to your contacts ASAP.
PLEASE FORWARD THIS WARNING AMONG FRIENDS, FAMILY AND CONTACTS!
You should be alert during the next few days. Do not open any message
with an attachment entitled 'POSTCARD FROM HALLMARK,' regardless of who sent
it to you. It is a virus which opens A POSTCARD IMAGE, which 'burns' the
whole hard disc C of your computer. This virus will be received from someone
who has your e-mail address in his/her contact list. This is the reason
why you need to send this e-mail to all your contacts It is better to receive
this message 25 times than to receive the virus and open it.
If you receive a mail called' POSTCARD,' even though sent to you by a
friend, do not open it! Shut down your computer immediately.
This is the worst virus announced by CNN. It has been classified by
Microsoft as the most destructive virus ever. This virus was discovered by
McAfee yesterday, and there is no repair yet for this kind of virus. This
virus simply destroys the Zero Sector of the Hard Disc, where the vital
information is kept.
COPY THIS E-MAIL, AND SEND IT TO YOUR FRIENDS. REMEMBER: IF YOU SEND IT

TO THEM, YOU WILL BENEFIT ALL OF US

If anyone is using their PC online without antivirus software I can personally recomend AVG Free, its errrrrrr free (yes free & will cost you no money :-)anti virus software & works very well.

Another good bit of kit to have is Lavasoft Adaware, great for cleaning your system of spyware etc.

Right I'm off to update my Norton.

See ya soon
