F-Secure Virus Descriptions : LoveLetter.K





NAME:LoveLetter.K

Information about the original VBS/LoveLetter.A is available at: http://www.F-Secure.com/v-descs/love.shtml

This variant sends messages with the following content:

    Subject:    Thank You For Flying With Arab Airlines
    Body:       Please check if the bill is correct, by opening the
                attached file.
    Attachment: ArabAir.TXT.vbs

VBS/LoveLetter.K deletes files with ".dll" and ".exe" extensions and creates a new file with an additional ".vbs" extension. Then the virus locates all files with the ".sys" extension, creates a new file with the ".vbs" extension and hides the original file.
