Subject:   Re: Serious virus warning!

I looks like at least one copy of the virus has already been posted to SAS-L The header reads "ILoveYou" and there is an attachment "LOVE-LETTER-FOR-YOU.TXT.VBS"

From a conversation with our campus anti-virus person it looks like our campus was hit with it today too.

It might be a good idea to make sure these messages aren't archived.
