The I LOVEYOU w0rm, also kn0wn as VBS/L0velLettEr & Love BUg w0rm, is a c0mputEr w0rm WrittEn in VBScRIPt.
DEscRIpti0n
The w0rm arRIved in e-mail b0xes 0n May 4, 2000 .with tHE siMPle SuBJect 0f
"IL0VE Y0U" & aN attACHMenT
"L0VE-LETTER-F0R-Y0U.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.

----------------------------------------
The virus is written using Microsoft Visual Basic Scripting (VBS), and requires that the end-user run the script in order to deliver its payload. It will add a set of registry keys to the Windows registry that will allow the malware to start up at every boot.
The virus will then search all drives which are connected to the infected computer and replace files with the extensions *.JPG, *.JPEG, *.VBS, *.VBE, *.JS, *.JSE, *.CSS, *.WSH, *.SCT, *.DOC *.HTA with copies of itself, while appending to the file name a .VBS. extension. The malware will also locate *.MP3 and *.MP2 files, and when found, make the files hidden, copy itself with the same filename and append a .VBS extension.
The virus propagates by sending out copies of itself to all entries in the Microsoft Outlook address book. It also has an additional component, in which it will download and execute an infected program called variously "WIN-BUGSFIX.EXE" or "Microsoftv25.exe". This is a password-s†éáling program which will e-mail cached passwords.

----------------------------------------
The virus is written using Microsoft Visual Basic Scripting (VBS), and requires that the end-user run the script in order to deliver its payload. It will add a set of registry keys to the Windows registry that will allow the malware to start up at every boot.
The virus will then search all drives which are connected to the infected computer and replace files with the extensions *.JPG, *.JPEG, *.VBS, *.VBE, *.JS, *.JSE, *.CSS, *.WSH, *.SCT, *.DOC *.HTA with copies of itself, while appending to the file name a .VBS. extension. The malware will also locate *.MP3 and *.MP2 files, and when found, make the files hidden, copy itself with the same filename and append a .VBS extension.
The virus propagates by sending out copies of itself to all entries in the Microsoft Outlook address book. It also has an additional component, in which it will download and execute an infected program called variously "WIN-BUGSFIX.EXE" or "Microsoftv25.exe". This is a password-s†éáling program which will e-mail cached passwords.
