E-mails claiming pop star Michael Jackson has tried to kill himself are being spread by hackers as a means to break into computers, a British antivirus firm said Friday.

The hackers have sent e-mails with the subject "Re: Suicidal attempt" and the message text: "Last night, while in his Neverland Ranch, Michael Jackson has made a suicidal attempt," according software security company Sophos.

Jackson is awaiting a California court verdict on charges of child molestation.

This is not a joke I just wanted people to see how easy it is to get a virus. The way it is setup it will bypass your virus control progam. It is not an attachment. If you don't know the person who sent it just delete it.
