HONGKONG- As Hongkong Internet users recover from the chaos caused by the“Love Bug”computer virus, many are being hit with a hoax e-mail warning of another virus that supposedly destroys their machine instantly. The e-mail says opening a message headed“Lets watch TV”will lead to erasure of all information on their hard drive by a virus called“Kali”, after the Hindu goddess of destruction. The message is at least the fourth hoax e-mail received in Hongkong in the past two months.
IBM's Hongkong office says it is up to consumers to halt the circulation of nuisance messages. The latest virus message follows one circulating last month that tricked recipients into believing they would get a free top-of-the-line Ericsson mobile phone if they forwarded a message to twenty friends.CAPTIONMoko(left) plays an alpenhorn and Piko a bugle at Yokohamas Hakkeijima Sea Paradise Aquarium.

当香港的因特网用户从“爱虫”所造成的混乱中恢复过来后，很多人又受到恶作剧电子邮件的袭击，该邮件警告用户另一种病毒会立刻毁坏计算机恶作剧邮件说，如果打开题为《让我们看电视》的邮件，就会使硬盘上的所有信息被名为“凯利”的病毒抹去。凯利是印度破坏女神的名字。这一邮件至少已是两个月来在香港收到的第四个恶作剧邮件了。
IBM香港总部说，要靠用户们来制止这一荒诞信息的传播，该邮件是紧接着上个月流传的一封邮件而出现的，那封邮件欺骗收信人，使其相信如果将此邮件再转发给20个朋友，就会免费得到一个高档爱立信牌手机。
