Hello,

I received the following message on Saturday 12-8-01 AM from a friend with
whom I correspond occasionally.  When I searched I found the file
SULFNBK.EXE  in C:/windows/command, and deleted it.  It has been over a
month since I corresponded with him.


The message I received:

---start of message---

Please check the following information to see if we
transferred a VIRUS to anyone.

I was sent this from a client -- and we did have it on
our C-Drive.

Sorry -- we hope this hasn't transferred to you.

Do the following instructions:

This is a time release virus which means that Norton
and MacAfee Anti- virus do not pick it up until it is
too late.
I was told that the virus may have attached itself to
everyone in my address book, and that I should send
this warning to all of you regardless of whether or
not I have emailed you in the past week or so.

Please follow the following directions to see if you
have the virus and if you do, to eliminate it.

Click on "start".
Choose "find" or "search".
Choose "files and /or folders".
Select "find".
Select "C drive".
The file to search for is: SULFNBK.EXE

If you find this file, DO NOT OPEN IT!
SELECT THE FILE BY right clicking ON YOUR MOUSE AND
DELETE IT!
Then close the window and EMPTY YOUR RECYCLE BIN.
Then email everyone in your address book and ask them
to follow the same procedures.
