I presume the business would come from the fact that some of us aren't using
Linux 24/7. And some of us might even be using Outlook Express to read our
e-mail...........

So, just how does this virus even attack Linux?? I would have thought if it was a Windows virus it would have no business even being on a Schools Linux mailing list - IMHO.

There's no way I'm loading a HTML page to look up alleged virus information from an unknown source! (or forward emails of apparent infections. We all get viruses from time to time - there is no need to forward this kind of useless information amongst the group).
Hi,
Just a warning,
We received LOVE-LETTER-FOR-YOU virus today.
Fortunately, the person who got it was wise enough to delete it on site - not a kiddy-wink!
