Recieved the following letter from one of my ISPs and the link below from a
friend, this virus is real and verifiable. Ananova.com even reports it!
>http://www.cnn.com/2000/TECH/computing/05/04/iloveyou.01/index.html
If you recieve a letter called "iloveyou" and it contains an attachment
called "iloveyou.txt.vbs" simply delete it, do not open the attachment,
don't click on it. The vbs is the clue, that means it's a visual basic
script which is a common programming language used by your
computer. usually these are good. This one is bad. Delete it and the
mail it came in. (you could open it with notepad if you're very curious and
well backed up, but if you don't know what you're doing, just delete it)

Inertia. It's not just an object at rest tends to stay at rest; it's
also an object in motion tends to stay in motion.
