It also has links for more information. I haven't had to deal with the virus myself. Apparently it won't affect your computer unless you actually execute the file and watch the fireworks show. A neighbor has such an outdated operating system that all she got was a green flash. The system was too outdated for the virus to affect it,too. At the site there's a list of systems that the virus doesn't affect. http://members.tripod.com/docsmiley/happy99.htm Good luck! - - Carol >Hello Luggers, >Last night I downloaded an attachment from another Lugger.
