Message-ID: <005b01c8790b$71f657b0$6500a8c0@epoxkitchen> Ahoy Pirates, Warning, this situation appears to have all the potential to cause catastrophic failures in some engines. Jay Storm contacted me today to make me aware of a change in lubricating oils that could be a significant disaster in the making. This could be a particular problem for people with older gasoline engines with flat valve lifters/cam followers. It appears that environmental concerns have caused the removal of a significant oil additive that is particularly critical in older engines. Please see the article that best synopsizes the problem at http://www.ttalk.info/Zddp.htm and make your own judgment. Bob -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

You should be alert during the next few days. Do not open any message with an attachment entitled 'POSTCARD,' or any number of other similar types of card, regardless of who sent it to you. It is a virus which opens A POSTCARD IMAGE, which can essentially destroy the data on your hard drive. This virus will be received from someone who has your e-mail address in his/her contact list. This is the reason why you need to send this e-mail to all your contacts. It is better to receive this message 25 times than to receive the virus and open it. If you receive a mail called' POSTCARD,' or any of the variations listed on the reference, even though sent to you by a friend, do not open it.! Shut down your computer immediately. This is the worst virus announced by CNN. It has been classified by Microsoft as the most destructive virus ever. This virus was discovered by McAfee yesterday, and there is no repair yet for this kind of virus. This virus simply destroys the Zero Sector of the Hard Disc, where the vital information is kept. COPY THIS E-MAIL, AND SEND IT TO YOUR FRIENDS. REMEMBER: IF YOU SEND IT TO THEM, YOU WILL BENEFIT ALL OF US. See: http://www.snopes.com/computer/virus/postcard.asp for more detail.

The problem is that is also a Hoax based on the same premise. The Worm is mostly focused on overloading servers by sending out a bunch of emails to the systems rather than destroying your data. This has in the past resulted in "denial of service" problems for some companies. But some versions have been reported to be more malicious.

Fred Meyer is recalling bottles of bleach that were sold exclusively at Fred Meyer and QFC stores that could potentially burst out of the bottle when opened. The Everyday Living Bleach involved in the recall was on the shelves beginning January 17. It includes 96 oz. bottles of the regular, citrus and mountain blend bleaches as well as 128 oz. bottles of the regular bleach. If you purchased the product, you should put the bleach in a garbage bag, and place it in a second bag if the container looks bulged. Please don't attempt to take this item back to a store. Instead, move the item to an area where it won't cause damage and contact the manufacturer, KIK Customer Product, at 800-479-6603 ext. 656. Please be ready to provide the UPC number, description, size and sell-by date on the bottle. Arrangements will be made for the manufacturer to come and pick up the bagged bleach. If the UPC number or the sell-by date cannot be viewed without touching the bottle, but was purchased after January 17, simply bag the product and call the manufacturer. Thank you.
