I recently received an E-Mail from a relative warning about a new virus called "invitation", reportedly the most destructive virus ever.
However, a Google search describes the threat as a hoax.
Anyone have any knowledge of this matter?

Sounds very much like a hoax.

Does it mention the Olympic Torch by any chance?
