'I LOVEYOU' Bug Hits Computers

Compiled from Staff and Wire Reports
Thursday , May 4, 2000

A computer virus spread by e-mail messages titled "ILOVEYOU" infected
computers worldwide Thursday. The Pentagon and businesses in
Washington were hit along with investment banks in Asia, and the
parliament in Britain.

The new virus originates in an e-mail entitled "ILOVEYOU." Once the
attachment, which is named LOVE-LETTER-FOR-YOU.txt is launched, the
virus sends copies of the same e-mail to everybody listed in the
user's address book.

Anti-virus firm Symantec said it had already released an update to
its
software to combat the virus, but warned computer users not to open
any "ILOVEYOU" messages.
