I was just checking my email via my browser and came upon this as the start of the message...

begin 644 Happy99.exe
M35I0``(````$``\`__\``+@`````````0``:````````````````````````

...snipped.

Looks a bit dodgy too me. Any ideas or should I just zap the bugger.

Jet,
I believe you're joking, but just in case...

That is definitely a viral worm, and you should delete it immediately. It's an old one, and it will attach itself to all your outgoing emails if you use Outlook.

No joke. The sender is one of the Axis members who I think is trying to remove himself from one of our mailing lists. Dunno which list until I get home shortly.

This is what I see when I read it using a browser from a web page email service...

What you're seeing is a corrupt MIME record in an email. Happy99 is a well-known virus. Because it's corrupt, that particular email is harmless. But there's likely also nothing else interesting, so you should just delete it.
