About the *ILOVEYOU* computer virus

[edit]

The *ILOVEYOU* computer virus, sometimes called *Love bug* or *Love letter for you*, is a computer worm that effected over 10 million computers on and after 5th/May/2000. It started spreading around as an email with the subject line *ILOVEYOU* and the attachment *LOVE-LETTER-FOR-YOU.TXT.Vbs* At the time computers hid the end of a extension(VBS, a type of interpreted file) by default because it is an extension for a file type that Windows knows, leading unwitting users to think it was a normal text file. 2A01:9700:11B4:5B00:1DCC:31DC:4A69:FAA5 (talk) 14:46, 14 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Incorrect Date of investigation

[edit]

Under the Investigation section, it says the criminal case was opened on 5 May 1999, but the worm was released on 5 May 2000. The wayback of the citation confirms the same.

Sorry if this isn't the right place; it's locked for editing and this seems better than saying nothing. 65.129.92.11 (talk) 02:46, 26 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Minor grammar mistake in the Background section.

[edit]

I'd like to request an edit in the Background section. There's a superfluous usage of the word "the" within the fourth paragraph.
