The ILOVEYOU worm, also known as VBS/Loveletter and Love Bug worm, is a computer worm written in VBScript.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Description
The worm arrived in e-mail boxes on May 4, 2000, with the simple subject of "ILOVEYOU" and an attachment "LOVE-LETTER-FOR-YOU.TXT.vbs".
Two aspects of the worm made it effective:
* It relied on social engineering to entice users to open the e-mail and ensure its continued propagation.
* It employed a mechanism — VBScripts — that, while not entirely novel, had not been exploited to such a degree previously to direct attention to their potential, reducing the layers of protection that would have to be navigated for success.
here is the source code of one of the most famous virus the hits cyberspace
