Vince and company:

Your earlier message had the "Happy 99" virus (actually a trojan horse)
attached. Anyone that opened the attached exe file has now also been
infected. This will then be passed to others you send e-mail to. I had this
experience last month and I am sure Vince was unaware of it. 

This is not a hoax. Contacting a website like Symantec will provide
information on how to remove this attachment. If you opened the exe file
and saw the little "fireworks" display it was masking the files it was
changing at the same time. Even though you will not see this when you send
e-mail it will be there on the other end.
