I know that "Happy99.exe" is supposed to be a virus, and I haven't
opened it.  What about the second post under "Gun Auction" by the
same poster?  It looks like a graphic starts to download automatically,
so I stopped it.  Can a virus be transmitted via a graphic viewed on
a newsgroup?  I wasn't taking any chances, so I stopped the download
before completed, and so I haven't the faintest idea of what the
graphic is.

Thanks for the warning.
