> Dear Friends and e-Mail Correspondents,

> This is a serious e-mail.  I received an e-mail from a
> work associate warning of a virus that was passed on
> to him.  His PC was infected and since I was in his address
> book it had probably been spread to my computer.  I
> followed the instructions and located the virus.  By
> following the instructions, I was able to delete the
> virus.  The bad news is that you probably have it, as
> you are in MY address book!  More bad news is that
> my anti-virus program did not detect this virus.
> 
> This virus lies dormant for 14 days and then kills
> your hard drive.  Here is what to do.  If you follow
> the instructions and then see that you have the virus,
> you need to send a similar e-mail to everyone in your
> address book.
> 
> Remove the virus by following these steps:
> 
> 1.  Go to "Start."  Then to "Find" or "Search"
> (depending on your computer.)
> 2.  In the "Search for files or folders" type
> sulfnbk.exe -- this is the name of the virus. OR sul*.exe
> 3.  In the "Look in" section, make sure you are
> searching Drive C.
> 4.  Hit "Search" or "Find."
> 5.  If your search finds this file, it will be an ugly
> blackish icon that will have the name sulfnbk.exe.
> DO NOT OPEN IT!  If it does not show up on your
> first "Search," try a "New Search."
> 6.  Right click on the file -- go down to "Delete" and
> left click.
> 7.  You will be asked if you want to send the file to
> the Recycling Bin--say "Yes."
> 8.  Go to your Desktop (where all your icons are) and
> right click on the Recycle Bin and either manually delete
> the sulfnbk.exe program or empty the entire bin.
> 9.  If you found the virus on your system, send this
> or a similar e-mail to all in your address book
> because this is how it is transferred.
> 
> Sorry for the trouble and my apologies for having unwittingly
> "infected" you, should it have been passed on to you.
