Biggest E-Mail Virus Of Year On The Loose

A new e-mail virus, likely originating in Japan, ripped
through Asia overnight and then hit the United Kingdom and the United States as
new business days began Thursday. Dubbed "Fbound.C" by anti-virus companies,
the virus is responsible for the biggest outbreak so far this year. Fbound.C
causes no damage other than clogging up e-mail servers. It spreads by mailing
itself out to everyone in a victim's Outlook e-mail address book if he clicks
on its attachment, patch.exe. The infected message carries a subject line with
one of a number of randomly generated Japanese phrases but, occasionally, reads
"important" in English. No text appears in the body of the message. (RR)
