Explanation

The Jerusalem virus (also known as Friday the 13th virus) was first detected in 1987-1988 and activated every Friday the 13th. It infected both .EXE and .COM files and would delete programs executed on that day. The I Love You virus appeared much later (2000), Melissa was 1999, and Chernobyl (CIH) was 1998 but did not activate specifically on Friday 13th.
