  Yes, Good Times is not a traditional virus.  But I have read that the 
Good Times virus hoax is itself an email virus--that is, it keeps 
circulating and replicating.  It relies on humans to replicate instead of 
disk activity.
   In a sense, the Good Times is a virus that lives in the bandwidth, and 
not in individual computers.
   I agree, however, that it is annoying.
