I received this earlier and thought I would share. I intend to send this to friends and our kids. I did receive a Valentine email this morning and even though I know the person, am going to unfortunately delete it. Did you receive any warnings?

Every time a holiday comes around they try sending out these greeting cards infected with a virus so as soon as you open it your computer is attacked. What a shame that they do this and I will not open any greeting cards from anyone, Thanks for sharing this with us.

There's more information about the Storm Worm virus at Snopes, they've verified this email spread as true, and provided much more information on the subject, specifically where it originated from and how to avoid it.

I never received a warning about this nor do I recall getting any valentine emails that were spam. Guess I'm one of the lucky ones.

Thank you for the important information. I don't open any emails I do not know. My work is on my computer so I don't dare risk it.

Your welcome for the response. I always try to respond when I can even if MyLot does not find my comments worthy of a bit of change. LOL
Take care.
