Happy99 Virus


Watch Out for Happy99.exe.

If you come across an e-mail or newsgroup message with an attached file called Happy99.exe, don't download and run it! The file is actually a worm that adds attachments to e-mail messages and newsgroup postings without the user's knowledge. Happy99.exe is also known as W32/Ska, W32/Ska-Happy99, Happy99.Worm, Trojan.Happy99, and I-Worm. Happy modifies winsock32.dll so that it can monitor the postings and mail sent from the machine and then attach itself to them.

If you find that you have this please get a virus protection program to eradicate this from your system.
