Hi Stephan:

Thanks for the warning. I took this as an opportunity to test my
Anti-Virus software - Norton AntiVirus Version 5.0 with LiveUpdate File
dated Feb.7/2000.

So I scanned my Inbox for viruses. Norton found nothing. So I isolated
the message in a separate folder and scanned just that message. Still
Norton failed to find anything. Happy99 is definitely listed in the
Norton virus list, and I am using options that check compressed files.

Now, dare I attempt to execute HAPPY99.exe to see if Norton will
apprehend it? I know this isn't strictly a LF issue, but it seems that
it may become one. Anyone with similar experience?
