CHAT: Good news and bad news, concerning "I Love You"...

I just heard on the local news.  A suspect has been taken into custody
in the Philippines, accused of being the origin of the recent infamous
virus.

Unfortunately, possibly 50-odd million users have been affected by
either the original virus or one of several mutations -- kinda like a
bacteria that evolves and becomes resistant to certain antibiotics.

I think Hotmail must've blocked all attempts to send the infected e-mail
to all subscribers, because I have yet to receive any.  But I've still
become very careful about the e-mail I get.  I only download headers
when I check for new mail.
