FYI:  Happy99.exe is a worm program.  I don't know if Janel posted this on
purpose, or if it's part of the worm's behavior, but DO NOT RUN IT.

http://www.zdnet.com/zdnn/stories/news/0,4586,2195075,00.html has a story
on the program.

I'd recommend everyone be careful running any unknown binary files.  The
melissa virus is getting a lot of coverage in the press-- we should be
aware of these things too.
