'''Happy_Days_.exe''' is a Korean [[screamer]] [[application]] that gained notoriety in 2003. It is considered to be similar to the Win32.Flaghost malware, but its screamer image differs slightly from its predecessor.

When the application is executed, a black pop-up box appears randomly on the screen, displaying an edited version of [[Crazy Ghost]] alongside white-colored text that reads "^^ Happy days... please 5 seconds... to close."

^^ Happy days... please 5 seconds... to close

~~Once 5 seconds have elapsed, the pop-up box disappears only to reappear randomly in an infinite loop, which continues until the computer is rebooted~~.

Examination of the file assembly reveals that Happy_Days_.exe's product name is ~~<code>~~Scanregw~~</code>~~, which is an attempt to deceive users into believing that the application is a [[wikipedia:Windows_Registry|registry]] scanner. The coding language used to create the application is [[wikipedia:Visual_Basic_(classic)|Visual Basic 6.0]] Korean, which necessitates the installation of the ~~<code>~~vb6ko.dll~~</code>~~ file on the user's computer for successful execution. It is notable that Happy_Days_.exe does not contain any scream or other alarming sound effects.
