On the face of the title, it appears that it must be a rumour just to scare the people so that they don't read this message as it must be containing something wrong or adverse about the person mentioned in the mail (I m sure all know who is that person in white house).

Anyways, it is advisable not to take risk.

regards,

Variations: Versions circulating in August 2010 proclaimed "TRUE ACCORDING TO SNOPES.COM." Which is a lie.

Origins: The 'Black [Muslim] in the White House' virus warning is yet another variant of the

same basic hoax which has been circulating in various languages since at least 2000, with occasional changes along the way. It was most commonly seen in its incarnation as the "[Virtual]Card for You" hoax, then in time for the 2006 Winter Olympics someone dusted it off and reintroduced it as an "Olympic Torch" virus warning (also known as the "Invitation virus").

After the inauguration of Barack Obama in 2009 it was sent around again as a warning about a virus called "Black in the White House." In 2010, the same hoax was circulated yet again, this time with a tongue-in-cheek notice that virus mailings were accompanied by pictures of Gordon Brown (then the UK's Prime Minister) "actually smiling."

The bottom line is that no matter what the title du jour might be, this warning is pure hoax: No such (incurable) virus like the one described in this warning exists, has been identified by McAfee, or was reported on by CNN.
