Heads up on a new virus - ILOVEYOU

I'm sure you've heard about it already, but you may wish to block www.skyinet.net (206.101.197.226) at your borders, as that is where it fetches part of the actual virus code from:

132.185.x.y - - [04/May/2000:10:23:14 +0100] "GET http://www.skyinet.net/~y oung1s/HJKhjnwerhjkxcvytwertnMTFwetrdsfmhPnjw6587345gvsdf7679n jbvYT/WIN-BUG SFIX.exe HTTP/1.0"

Other than that, it looks like just another Melissa.
