This is a hoax. sulfnbk.exe comes with windows. it is used by Windows to restore long filenames. As any file it CAN be infected, but the file itself should be there. Check the date on the file and if it is the same as the date on the other files in the windows\command directory, then it is the copy that came with Windows.
If you delete it certain parts of Windows will not work.
