I am a natural skeptic and never foward antyhing without verification. Almost everything I get are virus hoaxes which I can verify at several different sites like datafellows.com
Most of this crap is propagated and spammed out to all the rest of us by AO[hel]L users. My philosophy is if I get an e-mail about viruses or anything out of the ordinary where more the half the recipient list involves AOL, I immediately think hoax. Even 1 AOL user on the list raises my suspicions.
