    files. All AOL software is distributed through keyworded download
    areas on the service." The following is the e-mail message being
    circulated: Attention Friends

    receive an e-mail that is titled "Fwd: America Online 4.0 Upgrade"

    SCREEN NAME and your PASSWORD to two or more people during two
    blackouts of your computer screen.  DO NOT DOWNLOAD DELETE IT!!!
    Please E-Mail this letter to as many people as possible  to avoid
