The following message is a hoax:
This new virus called "Blotto" is the most destructive ever. It will physically destroy your computer! It will destroy your hard drive by telling it to read a certain track (portion) 65,535 times! That will cause the drive to severly overheat and eventually that destroys the drive. It also tells the computer to sit on a certain register until the circuitboard underneath literally melts!
IT COMES FROM EMAIL. IF YOU GET AN EMAIL SAYING "WANT TO PLAY BLOTTO?" DELETE IT IMMEDIATELY AND DON'T OPEN THE ATTACHMENT!
PLEASE Send this to everyone you know to warn them.
