   The "Love Letter" worm is a malicious VBScript program which spreads

   Coordination Center has received reports from more than 250 individual
   sites indicating more than 300,000 individual systems are affected. In
   addition, we have several reports of sites suffering considerable
   network degradation as a result of mail, file, and web traffic
   generated by the "Love Letter" worm.

I. Description

   You can be infected with the "Love Letter" worm in a variety of ways,
