You have just received a Norwegian virus. Since we are not so technologically advanced in Norway, this is a MANUAL virus. Please delete all the files on your hard disk yourself and send this mail to everyone you know.

How am I going to send an email if i erase my harddrive? Geez, you Norweigans are stupid. ;)

LOL@both

!!! i have the whole internet zipped on a 3.5" floppy !!!

oys: don't copy that floppy!

Wain, doesn't that just mean that this Virus exploits the honor system?

I've seen many people actually do that (at least delete important windows files). I actually threatened to take away a pc from a woman here, and give her a typewriter instead, cause she opened one pif too many :)

Someone have send me the same joke a long time ago, but it was the Albanian virus. (I hope there is no Albanian scener offended in here :)

But why do you say that Norway too back in technology? i don't think so. Only in Greece they ban games :)

Remember the good old times, when Pif was some nice French comics?

Thats a good inspiration for a virus writer.. 'Please read the attached copy of Pif - TheVirusOfDoom.pif'

Albanian sceners? Now there's a thought.

Albanian tunnel-effect: www.goatse.cx

sagacity: how about a warning next time??? That really wasn't something I wanted on my monitor at work! Still, nobody was around so no harm done at least :)

psonice: wait. Ok... wow. I'm just having trouble coming to grips with the thought that someone does not know about goatse. Doesn't it come in the mail with AOL cd's now?

I know goatse too now :P

Sir g: well, i now know. Not had anything about it in the mail though, but the postman always has a strange smile, perhaps he steals it...

A_Lee_N:
i think you are supposed to send it BEFORE deleting everything. it's quite tricky though.

Wain: that has actually been a norwegian email-joke about swedes for a couple of years. (ohyes, reversed)

You have just received an American virus. Since we are not so good at aiming our weapons of mass destruction in the US, this is a MANUAL virus. Please declare your weapons of mass destruction yourself and send this mail to bush@us.gov. Then code a virus yourself and send the source code to SCO so that we can immediately claim we invented it 10 years previous. Oh, and while you are there, pretend you're harbouring Osama Bin Laden. It'd help our campaign lots! Thanks, and best wishes... George W.

In America, it's generally the 'polish virus'... I'm not sure what it's supposed to polish, though it did clean my hard drive very well.
Thanks, George W! I'll help you campaign to elect Osama Bin Laden to the board of SCO! :)

i think stileproject has a 'behind the scenes' pack called gap.zip of the goatse man. it features extensive footage of how that famous albanian tunnel effect was created.

afaik the sources for the albanian tunnel effect are located somewhere at this place: http://goatse.cx/contrib/gap.zip

don't tell anyone

You've been infected with the French virus. Now your computer refuses to boot up unless you're willing to speak French. And even then not send any troops in when you're playing Battlefield.
