Not close to as soothing as it sounds. Holding the Guinness World Record for “most destructive infection ever”, it spread so rapidly that ILOVEYOU caused between $10-$15 billion in harm!
The-ILOVEYOU-Virus-What right?
ILOVEYOU was a PC worm that hit PCs toward the beginning of May 2000. It came covered up in an apparently guiltless email connection.
Where does the name come from?
The email connection was given the cutesy name of LOVE-LETTER-FOR-YOU.TXT.
What it does:
The .txt record name fooled beneficiaries into opening the connection.
Reproduced itself and covered up in different envelopes on the client’s hard drive, supplanting documents with duplicates of itself.
Downloaded an executable record (.exe) onto the client’s PC to take individual data.
Gotten to email address books and sent it out to different beneficiaries.
How was ILOVEYOU made?
Onel de Guzman and Reomel Ramones co-composed the infection
Starting in the Philippines, there were no present antivirus laws. After their capture, Guzman and Ramones were delivered with all charge dropped
Because of the worldwide danger that ILOVEYOU presented and the money related effect on significant organizations, the Philippines and numerous different nations overall arrangement laws against composing malware.
Online dangers have just developed since ILOVEYOU yet running a decent antivirus and ordinary FixMeStick output will help keep your PC spotless and ensured.
