If you were unfortunate enuf to have executed Happ99.exe, it is quite simple
to exterminate it.  Just go to
http://members.tripod.com/docsmiley/happy99.htm and follow the instructions.
The Happy.exe "worm"  plays a little with your WIndows Sockets file but is
dumb enough to leave you with a backup, which is easily retored.

Cheers!

    Subject: Virus Alert - Happy99.exe


    Do not open the Happy99.exe that was sent to this list. It is a trojan.

    Lucius Hilley informed me of the problem and wanted me to inform the
list about this attachment.

    This virus auto-attaches to email messages. Just by reading the message
you will not be infected unless you execute the Happy99.exe program.
