E-pidemic

Article Abstract:

The computer virus called Melissa was not a significant danger to anyone's computer system. It only searched for e-mail addresses to infect other computers. The creator of the virus was caught in New Jersey, US, and faces 10 years in jail and up to $150,000 in fines. More dangerous viruses scramble data or make a hard drive unreadable.
