Hello, The Love Letter virus is currently doing the rounds in Europe on a large scale. It will soon become clear whether the US and the rest of the world is affected. If you receive an e-mail with the subject title (ignore underscores - used to get past our mail sweeping software) I_LOVE_YOU, do NOT open this mail and delete it immediately. It is a variant of the Melissa worm, except it is destructive to local and network drives. This affects computers running Windows 95/98/NT/2000, Microsoft Outlook and Microsoft Internet Explorer.
