shut down the entire Internet

"Dear Internet user, the Nimda virus might slow down the Internet. We want to shut down the Internet as a precaution. We'll send an email when you can safely turn your PC back on..."

You forgot option 4 in the poll: "That's just sad and pathetic."

Question... how the hell can they send you an email to tell you when to turn your PC on?!?

This is so idiotic, yet somehow, I'm sure there are some who fell for it.

*exactly* what i was going to ask! that's the part that clinched it for me. had i taken more initiative, i might actually have been rolling on the floor after i read that.

no, i don't think anyone would fall for this one. well, maybe some poor little old lady who just got a computer.

aww... now i feel bad for the little old lady, waiting for the e-mail to come so she can turn her computer back on...

YES! Shut down the whole thing and then somehow get an e-mail saying I can turn it on now. .....Yeah right...NOT! :rolleyes:

Actually, though, some of these viruses are causing a huge pain in the ****. My bf is currently working at Kraft Foods, and their connection to the Internet has been shut down until further notice (since last Wednesday). It's expected to be a few weeks before they get back to normal.
