Today morning was a day of shame....
A mass mailing worm infected my yahoo mailbox and mailed itself to numerous people picking up addresses from my address book.
It was not an ordinary worm.... it came with a pornographic video or photos i am not sure, since I never opened it myself, but came to know of it from the flood of furious mails from all my old dear friends as a reply.
I had so far know that computer viruses n worms affects only your computer.... but today I realized that it may also affect your personal life, your friendships, your relations.
God! I had to spend my day out, writing my apologies to all whose sentiments were hurt because of that infected mail.
My yahoo account also contained id's of my bosses and clients... but thanks to the firewall setup at our office intranet, that it blocked that deadly mail from ruining my life.
I was totally shocked to see the way people responded, I imagine if I was within their reach then.... they would have stabbed me for this unknown offence of mine.
I just wonder now... what kind of movie/photo it was (since I deleted it immediately and did not had the chance to see it :-D ) that made my dear friends to react in such a manner.
