  Hoax viruses :

  "Here is an interesting thing I read the other night. It was on an anti virus site it was a question that asked if Hoax viruses caused any damage to peoples computers? The answer was YES because people can be tricked into thinking they have a virus and format and reinstall their OS. Losing any data they may have collected. Not to mention the time they spent rebuilding their pc. "

  Ok, That is it for now .
