    * HEALTH CARE VIRUS: Tests your system for a day, finds nothing wrong, and sends you a bill for $4,500.

    * GEORGE BUSH VIRUS: It starts by boldly stating, "Read my docs....No new files!" on the screen. It proceeds to fill up all the free space on your hard drive with new files, then blames it on the Congressional Virus.

    * CLEVELAND INDIANS VIRUS: Makes your Pentium machine perform like a 286/AT.

    * LAPD VIRUS: It claims it feels threatened by the other files on your PC and erases them in "self defense".
