Faras,
I'm sure you don't know all the ins and outs of this worm, but Bobby did
not know he sent the Worm. Happy99 works by taking over your email, and
emailing itself to your friends and relatives (your address book). I have
blocked him from any further mailings to the list until he has cleaned his
harddrive, but I assure you, there was no malicious intent on his part.

Thanks for being patient!
