 Subject:      Email Bomb Warning

 We have received several notices of  a new email virus called
 "y2kstat.exe".

 This is not a hoax. If you receive a mail message with the
 "y2kstat.exe" program, do not run the program.  DELETE THE MAIL
 MESSAGE.

 This program destroys systems files that are required to boot
 the machine.

 We are currently filtering email messages for this virus in
 hopes of preventing any destruction.

Ignore this message and don't pass it on. If you ever receive the attachment with this name please send it to F-Secure for analysis.
