Hello everyone,
I received this warning today, 2/6/02. I did in fact find this program on
my hard disk. I'm sending this to EVERYONE on my address book as a safety
precaution. I have not idea if this has infected any of you but I want to
be safe. Please do the search and delete this file. If we are lucky, it
hasn't had time to infect your computers.

Peace,

Herb

<br>
&gt; Dear Friends and Colleagues<br>
&gt;<br>
&gt; I received this email today regarding a virus transmitted through
address<br>
&gt; books.<br>
&gt;<br>
&gt; I found the file in my computer and deleted it as per the
instructions<br>
&gt; below.&nbsp; I suggest you follow the instructions as I did, and
delete it from<br>
&gt; your&nbsp; computer.<br>
&gt;<br>
&gt; You are receiving this email from me because your name is in my
Address<br>
&gt; Book.<br>
&gt;<br>
&gt; My sincere apologies for the inconvenience.<br>
&gt;<br>
&gt; Best regards<br>

&gt; This is a new virus, that is spread from Address Book to Address
Book. It is<br>
&gt; apparently undetectable by Norton, McAfee and other Antivirus
software.<br>
&gt;<br>
&gt; It remains dormant for about 14 days, then activates and wipes out
the hard<br>
&gt; drive data. The directions for removing it are easy, and take only
about a<br>
&gt; minute to do. So please do it right now.<br>
&gt;<br>
&gt; 1. Go to 'start ' - then to 'find or search' (depending on your
computer)<br>
&gt; 2. In the 'search for files or folders' type in sulfnbk.exe This is
the virus.<br>
&gt; 3. In the 'look in' make sure you are searching Drive C.<br>
&gt; 4. Hit 'search' button (or find)<br>
&gt; 5. If this file shows up (its an ugly blackish icon with black
letters that<br>
&gt; will have the name 'sulfnbk.exe') DO NOT OPEN IT!!<br>
&gt; 6. Right click on the file - go down to delete and left click.<br>
&gt; 7. It will ask you if you want to send it to the recycle bin, say
Yes.<br>
&gt; 8. Go to your desktop (where all your icons are) and double click on
the<br>
&gt; Recycle Bin.<br>
&gt; 9. Right click on sulfnbk.exe and delete again - or empty the
Bin.<br>
&gt;<br>
&gt; If you find it, please send this email to ALL those listed in your
address<br>
&gt; book, because that is how this virus infects all of the
addresses.<br>
&gt;<br>
&gt; Sorry!<br>
