Absolutely. This virus is an insidious little bugger that, once ensconced
on your system, seems to covertly send out emails with a copy of itself as
an attachment, without your knowing about it? 2 weeks ago I saw the
attachment "happy99.exe" coming in from a web client in Singapore in an
otherwise blank message. I didn't open it, just trashed it. I never open
file attachments I'm not expecting, and this one was particularly
suspicious. Then a few days later, another client in Singapore sent me the
same thing, the same way! My wife got one as well from a _different_ person
in Singapore, but her Norton AV caught it (clearly it is spreading like
wildfire in Singapore). Of course, I don't think this virus would even run
on my Mac.
