I did not personally check this out, but had several friends who said that they did.
Any email or any forward, that has Hallmark, or Postcard from Hallmark, supposed to carry a virus that will burn up
your computer.
Has anyone else heard anything about this? Is this legit? If so, then do we have a way of protecting this site, and those
who sign onto it, to let them know about a virus alert? Would be something beneficial to all, I think.

I never open mail from a name or place I don't recognize, not even the porno stuff! I immediately delete it. Back when I first got a computer I opended one that was advertising a virus protection product. It was the virus! Like to never got it off my computer but finally killed it. The only other times I've been had is when the grandkids are on the computer and open some off the wall site. Monty

I agree, the best way is to delete the e-mail especially when unsolicited :headbang:
