Yup.

Last week I had about fifteen or so messages with this virus attached to it.
Luckily NAV for Exchange picked em up at the mail gateway.  I also saw it on
a couple other email systems that I have addresses on.  Don't know how bad
it actually was though.

Anyone hear of this virus yet?

XXXXXXXX  computer systems were hit by a virus yesterday. They had to
shut down most of their network for the day and seriously disrupted
courses and programs.

The culprit was a variation of the 'I Love you' virus and showed up as

BUUEBE in the subject line. This variant creates a random subject
heading.
If you receive any email with a suspicious subject and an attachment,
delete it immediately and then empty your deleted mail folder.

Thanks for your co-operation


Thanks,

Rob
