Hi everyone, I sure hope everyone is being cautious about opening any attachments in their email containing the words I Love You because of the new, extremely dangerous virus that hit two days ago. A friend & listowner from another list has suggested the below: Zone Alarm. This is the url for it and it is free for personal and non profit use. http://www.zonelab.com I don't know anything about Firewalls or how they work. She also suggested to watch out for the other virus that have been copied from the other one and goes by the following names: Description VBS/LoveLetter.worm arrives via email message with one of several subject lines, including: "ILOVEYOU" "Susitikim shi vakara kavos puodukui..." "Joke" "Mother's Day Order Confirmation" The text usually reads "kindly check the attached LOVELETTER coming from me." (there are other variants), and the worm is included in the attachment, usually called "LOVE-LETTER-FOR-YOU.TXT.vbs", "Mother's Day.vbs", or "VeryFunny.vbs". Look for the .vbs suffix. This worm attempts to send copies of itself through mIRC to the IRC channels and through Outlook to all address book entries. It then attempts to overwrite several types of files, including .jpg and .mp3. VBS/LoveLetter.worm also attempts to download and install an executable file called WIN-BUGSFIX.EXE, a password stealing program that will email any cached passwords it finds to the mail address MAILME@SUPER.NET.PH. You may receive this from a person you know, since it gets into your e-mail address book and copies your addresses. Just wanted everyone to be safe than sorry.
