Virus Myths
I found this sight a few years ago, before all of the AV vendors started having hoax pages on their sites. I have trained my friends at work to check the web site, or check with me before they forward any Virus Alert, or chain letter as they are usually hoaxes. They have become well trained.

For the chain letter hoaxes & such I send them to Urban Lengends A great Site if you enjoy Urban Legends.

My 11 year old has started using email She has been on restriction from it. She received about 120 emails from her friends of which over half were Virus Hoaxes and Urban Legends. I have taught her well also, she sent out an email to her "list" stating that everything they were sending is pretty much bunk & not to forward anything to her like that.
