This is how I received it from a friend... How much of it is hogwash?

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

 Do you know that Bill gates' REAL name is William Henry Gates III?
 His official REAL name NOW, is BILL GATES III. So, what's so eerie about
 this name? OK, if you take all the letters in Bill Gates III and then
 convert it in ASCII code (american standard code for information
 interchange) and then ADD up all the numbers...you will get 666, which
 is the number of the beast!!! SICK!! Coincidence har? Nope. Take WINDOWS
 95 and do the SAME procedure and you will get 666 too!!! and the same
 goes for MS-DOS 6.31!!! Sicko rite?
 Okay, that's the first part, now for the second part, for those of you
 fellas who still have the OLD excel 95 (not office 97) then try this out:

      1.open a new file
      2.scroll down until you see row 95
      3.click on the row 95 button, this highlights the whole row
      4.press tab, to move to the second column
      5.now, move your mouse and click on help THEN about microsoft excel
      6.press ctrl-alt-shift and click on the tech support button simultaneously
      7.A WINDOW WILL APPEAR, TITLE : THE HALL OF TORTURED SOULS this is
 really eerie okay...it has a doom style format and you can walk all
 around the hall...and on the sides of the walls are the names of the
 tortured souls...
       8.NOW WALK UP THE STAIRS AND THEN COME BACK DOWN, FACE THE BLANK
 WALK AND THEN TYPE IN EXCELKFA  this will open the blank wall to reveal
 another secret passage, walk through the passage and DO NOT fall off,
 when you get to the end, you will see something really really eerie...
 At this point of time, countless witnesses all over the world have
 verified this point...  it's really an eye opener.

 It could be a joke by MS programmers or is it?    Wouldn't be surprise
 if Bill Gates was "The Antichrist", afterall it was already foretold in
 the Bible that someone powerful would rise up and lead the world to
 destruction.
 And Bill Gates definitely have that kind of power in his hands. More
 than 80% of the world's computers run on Windows and DOS(including those
 at Pentagon!) If all his products have some kind of small program
 embedded(like this Hall of Tortured Souls) that can give him control,
 setting off nuclear
 arsenals, creating havoc in security systems, financial systems all over
 the world,etc......all from his headquarters isn't a far off reality!
 Just using Internet Explorer may just allow him to map out what you have
 on your computer bit by bit each time you log on. Perhaps the endtimes
 are near and this is just a tip of the iceberg!?

 "He also forced everyone, small and great,
 rich and poor, free and slave,
 to receive a mark on his right hand or on his forehead,
 so that no one could buy or sell unless he had the mark,
 which is the name of the beast or the number of his name.
 This calls for wisdom. If anyone has insight, let him calculate
 the number of the beast, for it is man's number. His number is 666."
 ..............Revelation 13:16-18

 Something for you to think about.  An eerie E-mail for everybody to
 think about...

 The Bible, in the Book of Revelation says that without the sign of the
 beast one would not be able to buy, sell, do business transactions,
 etc..... and ....... My question to you know is this..... Is Internet
 now a necessity in doing business?
 The Internet also bears the sign.... Note that the Internet is also
 commonly known as the World Wide Web or
        www.....
     One other way we write W is V/     (VI), so .....
         W   W   W
         VI  VI  VI
         6   6   6
       This gives me something to ponder upon ...
 Isn't everything going towards the Internet? (i.e.,  buying / selling
 goods, business transactions)  Isn't Microsoft always on the move to
 have a monopoly when it comes to software technology? And now the Internet?
 Revelation also says that the mark of the beast will be carried on one's
 Hand and one's  forehead..... If the Internet would indeed be the sign
 of the beast aren't we all starting to carry it on our hands and foreheads???
 Screens (forehead) and make use of the mouse (hand) ???
 Are things finally falling into place or are we just letting our
 imagination run???
 Remember, the devil came to cheat, steal, and to destroy......... so be
 VIGILANT !!!!
 About Bill Gates and Microsoft.
 PROOF that Bill Gates is the Devil:
 The real name of  "the" Bill Gates is William Henry Gates III.
 Nowadays, he is known as Bill Gates (III),  where III means the order of
 third (3rd)
 By converting the letters of his current name to the  ASCII-values and
 adding his (III), you get the following:
      |       B  66
      |       I  73
      |       L  76
      |       L  76
      |       G  71
      |       A  65
      |       T  84
      |       E  69
      |       S  83
      |       I   1
      |       I   1
      |       I   1
      |     --------------
      |        666 !!!!        THE NUMBER OF THE DEVIL.......
 Some might think ask,  "How did Bill Gates get so powerful?"
 Coincidence ?     Or just the beginning of mankind's ultimate and total
 enslavement????
      |    Before you decide, consider the following:
      |     MS-DOS 6.21
      |     77+83+45+68+79+83+32+54+46+50+49 =3D 666
      |     WINDOWS95
      |     87+73+78+68+79+87+83+57+53+1=3D 666
 Coincidence?  You decide....
 "To agree or to not agree with the WWW or the Beast",  is not the question.
  What if the WWW is the 666? Or Bill Gates be the Beast?
 what  will you do?? Cancel subscriptions to the Internet? Resign from
 Microsoft? Set out a campaign against Bill Gates in the Internet? Shut
 down all Windows95 forever?  It will not do you any good..... think
 about all this and pray, pray really hard, or else.........Never Stop

[Snip ASCII calculations of the number of the beast]

I have no idea if this is true. I can't be bothered to find out.

This, on the other hand, is absolutely true. I just tried it out on a
machine with a vanilla install of the Excel that came bundled with
Windows 95 and I swear to you that this is true.

Now I know most of you won't believe me, but I'm being absolutely
serious. Everything you read above is true. You could have knocked me
over with a feather, when the window titled Hall of Tortured Souls came
up, but it did. And you can wander around in a little virtual hall, and
there is a stairway, and a secret door and very tricky passsage (you're
stuffed if you fall off) and at the other end of the passage is...

is....

Do you really want to know?

is....

All of it.

Just goes to prove that people with too much time on their hands can
find conspiracies everywhere.

Quite apart from the fact that I don't believe that the 666 in
Revelation is referring to a literal number [1], the methods used to
compute it here are completely contrived.

Unless you write it \V, in which case it's 444.

Why do you switch from ASCII to numeric for the III part?  The ASCII
calue for '1' is 49 and the ASCII value of I is 73.  Neither of these
work.

DOS 6.21 was an emergency patch release when MS lost a court case and
had to remove some stuff from 6.20.  It was replaced a few weeks later
by 6.22.  There are very few copies of 6.21 out there.

This only works if you leave out the space, which was included in the
MSDOS one.

[1]  7 means perfection.  6 means inperfection.  666 means multiple
imperfection (i.e. the devil).  From Michael Wilcocks' "The Message of
Revelation"
