This file is part of the Windows OS. The virus alert is a hoax that has been going around for several months now. If you run Windows, you have this file just as you have COMMAND.COM or CONFIG.SYS. If your anti-virus software does not report a problem, I advise that you not modify your OS components. -- Dave Scott Minoru Development Corporation; Minoru Development SARL The home of Openhealth(tm): http://www.openhealth.com 3, rue du Colonel Moll, 75017 Paris France +33.6.8750.2465 [EMAIL PROTECTED] On Tue, 29 May 2001, Joseph Dal Molin wrote: > Folks, > > This is not a drill or a false alert.....I found this file on my hard disk > too and have deleted it accordingly, please check your computers too. > > Cheers, > > > > Joseph > > ------- > Joseph Dal Molin > Minoru Development Corporation/Minoru Development SARL > > > > Sent: Tuesday, May 29, 2001 5:04 PM > Subject: VIRUS ALERT! > > > > > > > > I did indeed find sulfnbk.exe on my computers!
