> 'You've got mail' virus detected 
> ISLANDIA, N.Y. (Bloomberg) - Computer Associates International Inc., a
> maker of antivirus software, warned of a new e-mail virus called Cybernet,
> which can affect Microsoft Corp.'s Outlook program and disable computers. 
> The virus, much like the ''I Love You'' virus, also spreads through
> Microsoft's software, Computer Associates said. 
> Cybernet appears as an e-mail with a subject line ''You've Got Mail!!!''
> and says it's virus free, but it will try to format a computer user's hard
> drive and infect Microsoft Word or Excel files. Cybernet can overload
> e-mail servers because it attaches to the first 50 entries in the user's
> Microsoft Outlook address book. 
> Other anti-virus companies said the program posed little danger since it
> has failed to spread widely. 
> ''We don't see a threat from this right now,'' said Dan Schrader, chief
> security analyst with Trend Micro Inc. 
> The so-called Love Bug, which struck an estimated 45 million computer
> users worldwide earlier this month, also spread through Microsoft
> software. 
> Shares of Computer Associates, the No. 4 U.S. software maker, fell 50
> cents to $50.50.
