Hello All
i received this from someone just a few minutes ago. I actually found it the
file on my computer. So, I'm sending this to everyone that I've had recent
email contact with.

-------------------
I did what they said and found the file. I deleted
it. You MUST do the same thing. I repeat ... I DID have this file...you probably do too !!!
I checked my hard drive the file was there I deleted it and I'm hoping I didn't
pass it on to anyone,
but just in case please check your drives too and be sfe. I apologize if you got
it from me, I have no way of knowing.
Virus software cannot detect it. It will not become active until June 1, 2001, at
that point it will become active and will be too late. It wipes out all files
and folders on the hard drive. This virus travels through e-mail and migrates
to the C:\windows\command folder. To find it and delete it off your computer,
do the following:
Go to the START button. Go to FIND or SEARCH Go to FILES & FOLDERS Make sure the
find box is searching the C drive. Type in: SULFNBK.EXE Begin search. If it
finds it, highlight it and press the Del key on your eyboard. Close the find
dialog box. open the Recycle Bin. Find the file and delete it from the Recycle
bin. You should be safe.
The bad part is: You need to contact everyone you have sent ANY e-mail to in the
past few months. I do not now how long this has been on our computers.
DO NOT RELY ON YOUR ANTI-VIRUS SOFTWARE. McAFEE OR NORTON CAN'T DETECT IT BECAUSE
IT DOES NOT BECOME A VIRUS UNTIL JUNE 1ST. IT WILL BE TO LATE THEN. WHATEVER
YOU DO, DO NOT OPEN THE FILE!!!
