This one is not a very destructive one just one that replicates. The latest virus definitions can prevent it from infecting or removing if already infected... Kind of a bummer to all those expecting a little Anna :(

Here is a link if you have a problem with it:

Jenn, if you still have that Snow white virus, forward it to me at work, jredmond@processfacilities.com so I can have a look at it (it'll get trapped at my mail sever but I will be able to inspect it... That one hasn't come in yet...

Thanks...

OK Jenn, I got "Snow White" from a different source. It has an executable attachment that will cause havoc on your machine. If you have a good anti-virus program with up-to-date definitions, it will prevent it from doing damage to your system and prevent most other virus from infecting your computer too...
