The Valentine’s Day E-card: Trojan horse of the modern age
Software provider Computer Associates has issued an early warning to computer users the world over to be wary when opening E-cards this Valentine’s season.

Once infected, your machine also may be used by foreign entities as a spam bot, and can even be used to spread the infected email to other computers. According to CA, the files to keep an eye out for are love.exe; onlyyou.exe; you.exe; youandme.exe; and meandyou.exe, but they do note that new files could be added to the mix at any time.
