    3. Hi, We are also on the list it would be my guess that someone has the happy 99 virus in their computer. I think it is a terrible thing that people dream up such garbage. What a waste of talent that could be used to do good. If anyone has opened an email attachment with a beautiful fireworks display chances are their computer has the virus. This particular virus although not destructive to data, sends the first 50 names on your email list an invitation to visit adult sites. To see if it has been opened in your computer go to Start, then to Find, next to files and folders. Type in "Happy 99" in the 'named' box, "my computer" in the 'look' in box and click on 'find now'. If the file is active, the location in your computer will be displayed. Go to that file and delete it. Do not open it or look at it!!!! Delete it and empty your trash to make sure it is gone. Last week I found a computer with the virus in three different files. I also recommend purchasing a virus scanning program like Norton Utilities or Macafee, both are excellent, but nothing can ever prevent all virus invasions. Also do not open attachments to email if you are uncertain as to their origin or content.
