Virus Warning
By Jon Page

My brother just called me from his work and warned me about a
devastating virus.  The e-mail is entitled "I Love you". The .vbs
attachment will do all sorts of bad thing.  There is no fix for it yet.

 [ I usually find that virus reports sent to the MMD are old hoaxes.
 [ This one is not, regrettably.  I confirmed this with CERT (the
 [ Internet Computer Emergency Response Team).  The anti-virus sites
 [ were all so busy this morning you couldn't connect to them.
 [
 [ If you get one of these messages delete it without opening it.
 [ There are anti-virus updates available already at some of the
 [ standard anti-virus sites.
