Please don't perpetuate these hoaxes!!! YOU CANNOT GET AN VIRUS IN AN E-MAIL MESSAGE!! DOESN'T MATTER WHAT THE SUBJECT SAYS!!! An e-mail message is only a text message. Viruses are contained in programs and applications. You can get a virus from an attachment or software you download from the web only. To protect yourself, virus check any software or attachments before you open them. But you're safe reading your e-mail, no matter what the subject is.
