I can appreciate that, and so that is why I apologized. I'm not saying that he caused the problem, but like me I'm sure you have been inundated with these warnings. And they come in waves! Last summer I must have been hit by dozens of them, everything from DisneyWorld to the old GoodTimes Virus warnings.

The most amazing thing to me, is that most people say that the warning came from their own MIS department.

In any event, rather than say to look out specifically for Happy99, I think that one should advise that a user should not open an attachment from a sender that you have no reason to trust. If it's a virus of some type, then it could have any name.

I know I jumped all over Doug for the message, as I just mentioned to Scott I'm on edge these days and it's part of the reason that I'm trying to post less as it's obviously coming across in what I type.
