FROM: CHRISTY HAWKINS WILLHITE
THIS IS WHY I DO NOT LIKE FORWARDING THINGS TO PEOPLE BECAUSE I RECEIVED A
VIRUS JUST BECAUSE I WAS IN SOMEONE'S ADDRESS BOOK. I GOT THIS MESSAGE
FROM MY FRIEND DEANA THAT I TRUST OR I WOULD NOT HAVE GONE THROUGH THE
STEPS. I CHECKED AND DID HAVE THE VIRUS SO YOU NEED TO CHECK AS
WELL. THE STEPS LISTED BELOW ARE EASY TO FOLLOW.

followed

address book,

FOLLOW THE

APPARENTLY
>UNDETECTABLE BY NORTON AND MCAFEE. It remains dormant for about
14 days then
>activates and wipes out the hard drive data. The directions for
finding and
>removing it are easy. Here goes:
> >1. Go to "start" - then to "find or search"
> >2. In the "search for files or folders" type in:
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 the icons are) and double
click on the

> >9. Right click on sulfnbk.exe and delete again - or empty
the bin.
