On May 19, 2000 a new variant of the LoveLetter Virus has been found to infect and cause damage in some US companies and organizations.This variant is, by far, not as widespread as LoveLetter was. As usual, we keep recommending that you never execute any received attachments. Here is our opinion on the roots of the problem. Info about the virus can be found on the F-Secure site. The virus is extremely dangerous when it activates, but is unlikely to cause much damage as detection was available before the virus was widespread.

It is detected and disinfected by the fsupdates which were released May 19.
