What no one seems to be picking up on is the fact that the Melissa
hysteria is causing more damage than the virus itself. Case in point:
the General Manager of HiWAAY Information Services, one of the best
Internet Service Providers in the country, recently posted the
following to Usenet:
Our mail storage shot way up over the weekend ... so I wrote a
program to search the 25,000 mailboxes on our system .... copies
of the Melissa virus actually found was two (2). But there were
thousands of various versions of WARNINGS of the virus (with some
people having as many at 10 or 15 different messages warning them
about it).
