Nonsense. Your message is a **HOAX** !
Instead, check the "Computer Virus Myths Home Page",
and the specific page describing "Deeyenda", at:
http://www.kumite.com/myths/myth027.htm
>>> FCC WARNING!!!!! -----DEEYENDA PLAGUES INTERNET
The FCC (Federal Communications Commission) does not issue such
messages.
It's not part of their mandate to do such.
