FYI:


There is a new ILOVEYOU variant that does not have any particular subject
heading.  It does have "FW:" in the subject line.  This variant will, unlike
the ILOVEYOU virus, overwrite ALL files that are not being used by the
system.

***DO NOT OPEN ANY MESSAGES THAT ARE FORWARDED TO YOU WITH ATTACHMENTS***

If you are a Windows 95 or 98 user please follow the below instructions to
minimize the probability of the virus causing problems.

Users of Windows 95 and 98 should turn off the Windows Scripting Host.
Here's how: 
*	Click on Start (the button on lower left of your Windows desktop) 
*	Click on Settings 
*	Chose Control Panel 
*	Click on Add/Remove 
*	Chose the Windows Setup tab 
*	Click on Accessories to obtain details 
*	Uncheck Windows Scripting Host if it is checked

I will be checking for any virus .dat file updates periodically.  

If you receive a forwarded message with an attachment delete it immediately.

Thank you,
