If we send you a virus, it's your fault

Thursday, 4 May 2000 INTERNET WIRE ISSUED a press release about a drawing for free products. You enter the contest by signing up for one of their free email newsletters. Well, every contest needs rules & disclaimers. Check out this one: "no responsibility is assumed for ... Internet problems of any kind; computer viruses or bugs; or any injury or damage to any computer resulting from participation or downloading of any promotion material." In other words, you deal with Internet Wire entirely at your own risk. Update your antivirus software before reading any email from them or visiting their website. You can't say Internet Wire didn't warn you...
