[OM] WARNING.....HAPPY99.EXE A VIRUS???

I recieved an emal message on this list with from LARS BUNDESEN with a
file attached called "HAPPY99.EXE"

I saved the file to my desktop without opening it and my computer locked
up immediately. I tried re-booting several times and each time my
computer would lock up just after booting to Windows95.

It was fortunate that I saved the file to the Desktop because it made
the fix easy. I had to boot Windows 95 in SAFE mode and delete the file
"HAPPY99.EXE" from my desktop before I could get up and running.

What's going on? Is LARS BUNDESEN spreading viruses?? Or is this a wierd
mistake??? Anyone else have that same problem??
