For those of you on r.f.c who use MS Windows, I figured I would alert you
to a virus that seems to be making the rounds on the Internet rather
quickly tonight. This virus is called I-Worm.LovGate.w and it is not being
filtered by all virus scanners. The virus arrives via email in the form of
a zip or exe file. The subject of the email that carries the virus varies.
Do not assume that just because an email with an attachment gets past your
anti-virus software that it is virus free. Delete any emails with
attachments that you are not expecting unless you receive positive
confirmation from the sender that the message is safe.


Who in their right mind would ever open an email attachment from someone
they didn't know?... Especially an executable...
