This message is from: "Jean Gayle" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Thanks Mike, I think I am all right but printed out your directions anyway. Appreciate that. Btw I have written everyone when phone calls did not work but only hear back from the previous owner, Carolyn Hunt.. But I will keep trying in hopes of getting the transfer papers on Gunnar.

Jean If I understand what you are asking you really can't. But by just "seeing" or viewing the message you can't get the worm or a virus for that matter. You would have to first double click on the message and actually open it in Outlook Express and then double click again on the HAPPY99.EXE file attachment. But to get rid of the message that has the Happy99.exe file attached to it you should just delete it as you did. You might want to do a search of your system to see if the file actually got deleted too. I take it you are running win95 or 98. If so you can do the following: Go to the start button, Select Find, Then select files or folders, Type happy99.exe in the "Named" Box make sure that "Look in" is set to "My Computer" make sure that the include sub directories box is checked, Now click the "find now" button. If any files named happy99.exe come up in the window below, select them and then hit the delete key. DO NOT Double click on the file name. Just hit the delete key when it is selected. Then close the find window and right click on the "Recycle Bin" icon on the desktop. Select the "Empty Recycle Bin" menu item and say yes to the confirm prompt. If you don't find a happy99.exe file in your search you are ok as long as you didn't run the file and see the fireworks display. Mike

I just highlight the parts of the message I don't want to resend, press the space bar, and voila! it's gone. I understand some programs are not so easy to use. BTW how is your big Charlie horse doing? Hope he has gotten over his "spell" again. Mary == Mary Thurman Raintree Farms [EMAIL PROTECTED] _ DO YOU YAHOO!?

This message is from: "Jean Gayle" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Mary, are you using Outlook Express for your email? If so how do you delete without seeing the message? I got this same message and just deleted it after it was open on my board. No problems though.
