There was an email joke chain letter that called itself the Amish virus. It stated that its author had no computer available in order to write it; hence, it can't run as an executable program or document macro. Instead, it asked the recipient to forward the Amish virus to several friends and then randomly delete some files on his or her hard drive. Is the Amish virus a true email virus? Why or
why not?
What will be an ideal response?
Technically, this would be a computer worm, except that there is no executable
code.
