Family Pictures is associated with a upstart Anti-Virus company.
This virus warning is half hoax and a slam against the new company.

I received this email from someone and thought it was an appropriate warning
for this newsgroup.

DO NOT OPEN "NEW PICTURES OF FAMILY" It is a virus that will erase
your whole "C" drive. It will come to you in the form of an E-mail from a
familiar person. I repeat a friend sent it to me, but
>called & warned me before I opened it. He was not so lucky and now he can't
>even start
his computer! Forward this to everyone in your address
book.
I would rather receive this 25 times than not at all.
If you receive an email called "FAMILY PICTURES," not open it.
Delete it right away! This virus removes all dynamic link libraries
(.DLL files) from your computer. Your computer will not be able to boot up!
