A brief background: Much like Melissa, the Love Letter virus spread via e-mail messages bearing the title "I Love You" and spread through Asian businesses Thursday afternoon. It appeared to be quickly tainting computer systems world-wide. If the attachment holding the virus is opened, the virus apparently multiplies by finding other e-mail addresses and prompting the computer to generate new e-mail. Victims sometimes receive dozens of e-mail messages, all contaminated with the virus. As of May 5, there have been two other versions of the virus reported floating around in e-mails with the subjects "Susitikim" and "Joke".

 ///  File Name: worm.txt
Description:
Writing Internet Worms for Fun and Profit - The love letter worm was very crude, and proof of concept code for much more powerful worms has been written. Expect next years worms to be architecture independent, invisable to the end user, spread without user intervention, learn and launch updated worms, polymorphic with no constant code, and dissapear after it has accomplished its objective.
