Hello,

Recently there have been several reports of a virus being passed through
lists in attachments. The virus, called Happy99, modifies infected 
computers so that they spread the virus to other computers through email 
attachments.

For more information on this particular virus, and how to remove it, visit 
the following web page:


      http://www.symantec.com/avcenter/venc/data/happy99.worm.html


This is a good time to remind people that, in general, they should not 
open email attachments or run programs from people they do not know. That 
is how this and other viruses are spread.

Thanks,


The ONElist Team
