Question about Virus?

[Michael Tallent]

Dan:

If you receive an e-mail with an attachment of HAPPY99.EXE just delete
the message, do not run the exe file and you will not get infected.
Also the LIST.DOC virus is infected in the same way.  Just don't run
attached files unless you know why they are there.  You can limit the
download file size in your e-mail reader, but this is a pain if you
sometimes get larger messages or file attachments.  Just don't click on
a file attachment without knowing what it is.  Here is a link for the
happy99.exe "worm".
