For information about how BubbleBoy works see:

http://www.symantec.com/avcenter/venc/data/vbs.bubbleboy.html

This site will also direct you to a Microsoft page which will give
directions for downloading a patch to IE5.  Bubbleboy exploits a bug in
IE5.

For info on all viruses (including hoaxes) see:

http://www.symantec.com/avcenter/

Or, better yet, see the page from you own anti-virus software vendor and
update your virus list while you're there.
