I got this message from 4 of my friends since morning.
--------------------------
"If someone by the name of "j_neutron07" wants to add you to their buddy/
contact list and you get a message for this, then DO NOT accept it.
It is a virus.
Tell everyone on your list because if somebody on your list adds them you will get
it too.
It is a hard drive killer and a very horrible virus.
Please pass this on to everyone on your IM list.
You can do this by "Right click on your group name of your buddy list and click Send Message to all then copy and paste this message. and send it to all.
----------------
So in general beware of this new threat......

Whenever I read ANY virus warnings or get forwards I tend to google them with "urban legend" or "hoax" after the word. 9 times out of 10 they are fake and well meaning people start panicking about them.-----------------------------------------------------------------
