Beware the Lovgate worm: It's not a biggy - not yet anyway...
Anti-virus vendors are warning internet users to look out for yet another worm - the second to strike this month. Called Lovgate, the worm has three variants (A.B and C), and is slightly more difficult to spot than the earlier 'Catherine Zeta Jones' malware, as emails carrying it come with random subject lines and contain attachments with a range of file names. From the copies so far intercepted, the email body text may contain the words, "I'll try to reply as soon as possible. Take a look to the attachment and send me your opinion!"
