Description
The year 2000, the world encountered a love bug with a twist in the year two thousand. Enter, the ILOVEYOU virus. This was no ordinary love letter, but a worm that slithered through email systems, leaving a trail of chaos in its wake. Like an overzealous Romeo, it professed its love to millions of computers around the globe. Its love was destructive, overwriting files, causing mayhem, and leaving hearts - and hard drives - broken. The cost of this ill-fated love affair? An estimated five point five to eight point seven billion dollars in damages. A costly reminder of the perils of unrequited digital love. So, next time you receive an email declaring undying love, remember the ILOVEYOU virus of two thousand.
