Simply by reading the subject line of this email, you've been infected by
the Manual Angel Potato virus.

While previous viruses put the burden of implementation onto the virus
programmer, the Manual Angel Potato virus puts the burden onto the virus
recipient. Furthermore, it is the first known virus to infect Excel, 123
AND Quattro Pro spreadsheets.

Please could you do the following:

1: Send this email to everyone in your public/global names and address
book.
2: Delete three or four files from your hard disk.
3: Add the words "Angel Potato" into cell B3 on every spreadsheet
you edit from now on.

Remember, we operate the honour system, and you're only fooling yourself...

Regards,

Mark Harrison
