C-Nile virus.

Please is this a virus C-Nile sounds or just a hoax

Copy of
E-mail I received
For reasons I cannot fathom, Tim Coldwell, who lives in Le Touquet, has
sent the following virus warning. It is, apparently, untreatable even by
the most advanced software from Norton or McAfee and seems to strike
people born before 1970.

Symptoms include the following: It causes you to send the same e-mail
twice. It causes you to send a blank e-mail. It causes you to send
e-mail to the wrong person. It causes you to send it back to the person
who sent it to you. It causes you to forget to attach the attachment. It
causes you to hit "SEND" before you've finished. It causes you to hit
"DELETE" instead of "SEND". It causes you to hit "SEND" when you should
"DELETE". It's called the C-Nile virus.

In news:OvoBmDaiDHA.2592@tk2msftngp13.phx.gbl,
Richard G. Harper [MVP Win9x] <rgharper@email.com> had this to say:
:: Affects people born before 1970? C-Nile?
::
:: Senile?
::
:: I suspect it's a joke.
::

*Just groans* Aye, it surely is... I have to hope that the poster was not
serious. Please? Tell me they're not...
