Here are the better of the jokes relating to the recent ILOVEYOU virus. These are jokes which are funny, but which didn't really warrant posting separately. I post such a digest whenever I have enough entries to warrant it. Particularly selective readers will probably not enjoy the digests, and may want to killfile RHF jokes with "Digest" in the title - ed.

I recently got this email:

From: Matthew Barker at SGI
Subject: I don't love you and this is not a joke

This is a virus that works on the honor system:

For those Unix & Linux fanatics who're feeling left out, please forward
this message to everyone you know and delete a bunch of your files at
random.

And if you just want something to click on, try

From the end of an e-mail message I sent out, after I received the
ILOVEYOU virus for the fourth time:

Oh, wait, a new e-mail message says it loves me. I'd
best open all of its attachments... Uh oh. It just
downloaded a Metallica song from Napster. Bugger.

>Subject: The "I love you virus" mutates?

After yesterday's worldwide strike of the "I LOVE YOU
VIRUS," reports are already coming in that the virus
is mutating into several stages. Within the next few
hours, expect to see:

The original "I love you" virus

The "I like you alot" virus

The "You're nice, but I just want to be friends" virus

The "Look, it was just a date...don't get clingy" virus

The "Okay, I think its best if we don't have anymore contact" virus

The "It was late, I was drunk, you were easy" virus

The "Stop calling me, you unfeeling prick" virus

The "That's it, I hate you and your stupid dog" virus

and finally,

The "You have made an enemy today, prepare to be boarded" virus

The "I Love You" virus disrupted services in offices across the world,
forcing companies to disconnect their computers from the outside world.
These shutdowns caused communication glitches among those who rely on
email to work. The New York Times reported (in "A Rogue Software
Program Attacks Computers Worldwide," 5/5/00):

"AT&T started shutting down its e-mail system yesterday morning, and by
3 p.m. the company's 145,000 employees had to use telephones to communicate."

Since the outbreak of the "ILOVEYOU" worm, the engineers at my
employer have started calling the programming language involved
"Microsoft Viral Basic."

A friend mentioned this to me today,

"Isn't it just my luck. Some stranger says to me, "I LOVE YOU" and next
thing I know, I've got this virus..."

"Hello, ILOVEYOU"
by Christopher Gillen
<with apologies to Jim Morrison>

Hello, ILOVEYOU, what a strange thing to send
Hello, ILOVEYOU, I thought you were a friend
Hello, ILOVEYOU, an attachment you say?
Hello, ILOVEYOU, this is taking all day
Love-letter-for-you T-X-T
Was a V-B-S file in reality
Not a message of love at all
It abused my MAPI protocol
Hello, ILOVEYOU, why's my modem light on?
Hello, ILOVEYOU, where have all my files gone?
Hello, ILOVEYOU, I reboot and it sends
Hello, ILOVEYOU, you're annoying my friends
My collection of MP3s have all been turned into 'love' VBs
So have my rare J-PEGs of Sharon Stone
At least it left all my GIFs alone
So I'm feeling like a fool
'Cause I've sent it to everyone at school
What a virulent e-disease
When we're all just separated by six degrees
Hello, Hello, Hello, Hello, Hello, Hello, Hello
I hate you, Hello, I need my 'puter
Hello, Hello, Hello, Hello

The following letter was found in Manila a few days ago...

To Guerrilla
From Abu Sayyaf

No, no, no. you got it all wrong. I said kill the _virus_, and
release the _hostages_.
