Hello, whoever is [log in to unmask], hello Technetters,

The following message

consists of an attachment only. Don't open this attachment, it seems
to be the "worm" happy99.exe.

Just delete the whole message.
And don't beat [log in to unmask], he/she doesn't know that his/her
computer sends that stuff out in the world.

I quote here a earlier warning about this worm from the
DesignerCouncil (Thanks to Eric Bonatti). The URL he mentioned
contains detailed descriptions what the worm does and how to remove
it manually.

Regards, nice weekend (hopefully without reinstalling all yout
computers)
