Here’s the homepage of Irene de Guzman, suspected of creating the “ILOVEYOU” Outlook Exploit.

Oooh.. now she’s such a vicious-looking criminal!

Frankly, I think all of this is a load of crap. The Feds have no idea who the perp is, and the stuff we see in the news media is simply damage control designed to keep us from questioning the expertise of law enforcement officials. I fully expect to see more and more of these types of exploits, considering the simplicity of modifying these scripts.

My take? Good riddance! If an organization cannot or will not take action to rid itself of an insecure computer monoculture, then it deserves to be charged out the ass by EVERY advantageous security firm that can smell its sheeplike blood.
