nes: If it wasn't for the fact that I had a friend that used to collect viruses on diskettes (he had each one labeled, I felt like I was in some bio-enginering factory whenever I looked at 'em) I'd think you were insane. Of course...my friend screwed up one time, and that was the end of his virus collecting. Anyhow, I got sent ILOVEYOU...from my state high school association...I'd would send it to you if I knew how to forward it w/out worrying about getting it, myself (I'm VERY careful with that stuff)

Put it in a zip file, then you cannot accidentally execute the program. I have a zip called ''happymeal'' that contains over 230 viruses. It helps if you have a really good virus scanner like mine that doesn''t even let you touch the files, but maybe they will come in useful some day!

The funniest part of stupid virii like this:

People find out about the virus, and immediately send a mass e-mail to everyone in their address book warning them about it. This happened when Melissa came out, and its estimated that the actual Melissa warnings used more bandwidth than the actual virus.

I''ve gotten 13 warnings about ILOVEYOU, and i still havent gotten the actual E-mail.



Another thing people don''t realise: Virii like these would not be at all popular if Microsoft Outlook actually had any security settings. I consider the situation analougous to this:

Person A puts 1000 sticks of dynamite around town hall and leaves.
Person B lights the dynamite.

in this situation, both people would be arrested and tried, however, with the MELISSA and ILOVEYOU virii, only person B is blamed, and person A is totally ignored.

Microsoft has spent millions of dollars laying out the ''dynamite'', but no one even considers this to be a problem.

Microsoft is negligent in their security procedures.

Oh well, all of us ELM users can sit back laughing at windows users who open SPAM.

Ah, I think there were braver deeds.
