    People,

    sorry for the off-topic subject but:

    no hoax,
    be on the lookout for a .vbs virus called I love you (iloveyou.txt.vbs) don't open it! don't put it in your preview browser. It's doing serious damage here in Europe at the moment.(check the newssites). It's written in visual basic and it will affect all jpg, mp3, css, html files and it will send the virus to all people in your address list if you use microsoft outlook.

    If you've already been comprimised here's a bit of a solution: http://www.teq-international.com/nl/lovecleaner.vbs
    but you'll probably end up formatting your hd....

    goodluck,
    Jeroen
