I agree with Thomas...this IS bull.  There's no way a worm or any other
virus can...

Now it's your turn to have your computer infected. This WORM it is 
undetectable by AntiVirus software and it will drive your computer crazy
because it's always hiding and causing havoc in your system. Using your 
computer recovery disks will not remove the problem cause it still stays
on your computers Motherboard. This will proabably cost you a new 
computer and I sincerely hope this teaches you a lesson not to send 
people nasty viruses again.

It's even written in poor english. This is more likely a prank and now
worth your time to mess with. On the other hand, if there really ARE
people out there stupid enough to write something like this and send it,
then it really is good for a laugh.  We ALL know there will be gullible
people out there who barely know how to turn a computer on, much less
how it works who will fall for this hook, line and sinker.
