I received the following email today, ostensibly from a “Miss Helen:”

DEAR RECEIVER,

You have just received a Taliban virus. Since we are not so technologically advanced in Afghanistan, this is a MANUAL virus. Please delete all the files on your hard disk yourself and send this mail to everyone you know.

Thank you very much for helping us.

Thanks & Regards

Miss Helen

Well, I didn’t follow Miss Helen’s gracious instructions, but thought you’d enjoy sharing this little bit of levity anyway.
