Budweiser Bug

[horny#1]

Hey everybody.
Just got an email from a friend saying if u find an email called Budweiser, don't open it cos it wipes everything on 1 of your drives (sorry but my friend & I aren't very technical!)
I know how tempting it might be for some of us (naming no names!) but just warning u.
I know it was around last year sometime but it's back again now so
BEWARE OF THE BUDWEISER FROGS!

Is it the same as this?

If so, then it's a hoax, and there's nothing to worry about.

Y'know, I actually find some of these hoaxes funny... The number of times I've been asked to delete either "SULFNBK.EXE" or "JDBMGMR.EXE"!

Just so you know... 99% of this type of email is a hoax. So don't panic.

However....

This thread is infected with the Irish virus. This virus works on the honour system. Please delete all files from your hard drive and pass this on to all your friends. That'd be grand, thanks.

The Bugbear virus is real though, I got an email with it on yesterday but didn't get infected. It's spreading really fast.
