The Yamaha AN1x Synthesizer mailing list

I work for the Federal government, and it's been around here also.  Kill the
message, then go to your Deleted Messages folder and kill them there as well
so they will go to digital hell where they belong.

I concurr with Peter, this is not a hoax.  I had 162 of them this morning in
my inbox.  I deleted them so was not infected.

Good luck everyone
Grant.

Subject: [AN1x-list] Virus warning (the 'I love you' virus)


Hi lists,

Sorry for crossposting, and sorry that this is a virus warning,
but there's a really nasty e-mail virus messing around. Please note
that this is not a hoax. I wouldn't suggest that you send this to
all your friends, because I expect that you'll receive this message
from other people as well. Mail servers will be overloaded enough
already.

You should be able to recognise the message by the subject line
which contains 'ILOVEYOU' and the attachment 'loveletterforyou.txt'.
However, this is actually a Visual Basic program with the extra
'.vbs' extension, but you mailer will hide this.

I suggest that you inform youself by checking out major news sites.
I just checked and CNN.com didn't carry it yet, but the BCC did:

You'd also best check out anti-virus companies websites, to download
a repair tool in case you've been infected, or if you fear this
has happened.

The virus is rather nasty - some reports say that it kills JPG and
MP3 files, plus it changes the start page in Internet Explorer, plus
it mails everyone in your address book - possibly mailing lists.

- Peter
