Pandemic Computer Virus is not a virus; it is a hoax or an e-mail message that tricks users into thinking that a new virus called Microshaft is spreading, which doesn’t actually exist.

Pandemic Computer Virus tries gain users’ confidence by making them believe that the information was issued by a company specializing in antivirus software.

Its aim is to cause alarm and get users to forward the message.

In order to avoid problems, disregard this information, as it is completely false. You should also immediately delete the message, without forwarding it to anyone.

Pandemic Computer Virus arrives in an apparently normal e-mail message, but which can be identified by its message. The message text always refers to a virus called Microshaft, which supposedly affects Windows 95.
