I apologize for the file that was somehow attatched to my last message.
It only sends it if I use Agent mail/new reader.
Does anyone have any clues on how I got it and better yet how to get rid of
the happy99.exe attatchment?
I know none of you know me, but I wouldn't intentionally send anything like
that out. Nor do I willingly know I had it on my system.
Regrets..

Hi! The Happy99 worm is a worm and not a virus -- it spreads via e-mail
and attaches itself to mails you send without your knowledge. Go to
http://www.cetest.nl/happy99.htm and you'll find a nice, easy way to purge
the nasty creature from your system.
Cheers!

goto http://www.avp.com and get antiviral toolkit pro or
goto http://www.complex.is/f-prot/ and get f-prot
or get any other antivirus software and remove it.

+"remove happy99" on altavista:
goto http://skt.comsats.net.pk/remove_happy99exe.htm for step-by-step
instructions to remove happy99.
