-----Original Message----- From: Brad & Lee Perkins [] Sent: January 1, 2002 2:31 PM Subject: VIRUS WARNING!!!!!! I just received an email that said I might have a virus that is spread from address book to address book. It is apparently undetectable by Norton and McAfee. It remains dormant for abut 14 days then activates and wipes out the hard drive data. When I checked my hard drive, I did find the virus and successfully deleted it. Since I have you in my address book, I want to share this message in case you, too, picked it up. The directions for removing it are quite easy to follow. 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 virus. 3. In the 'look in' make sure you're searching Drive C. 4. Hit 'search' button (or find) 5. If this file shows up (it's an ugly blackish icon that will have the name 'sulfnbk.exe') DO NOT OPEN IT. 6. RIGHT click on the file - go down to delete and left click. 7. It will ask you if you want to send it to the recycle bin, say yes. 8. Go to your desktop (where all your icons are) and double click on the recycle bin. 9. Right click on sulfnbk.exe and delete again - or empty the bin. If you find it, send this email to aX-Mozilla-Status: 0009k, because that's how it's transferred. Sorry for the bad news. Hopefully, you won't find it, or at least will find it in time to avoid problems with your hard drive. | ||||||||||||
