Dear Friends,
I received a virus from someone because I was in their address book.
You are in my address book and YOU MAY HAVE THIS VIRUS HIDING ON YOUR
HARD DRIVE.
IT LIES DORMANT FOR 14 DAYS AND THEN KILLS YOUR HARD DRIVE.
STOP EVERYTHING YOU ARE DOING RIGHT NOW AND TAKE 10 SECONDS TO DELETE
THE VIRUS FILE. (FOLLOWING ARE DIRECTIONS TO DO THIS)
If you've got it, send this information to everyone in your address
book.
The directions for removing it:
* Go to 'start' - then to 'find or search' (depending on your
computer)
* In the 'search for files or folders' type in sulfnbk.exe -- this
is the virus.
* In the 'look in' make sure you're searching Drive C.
* Hit 'search' button (or find)
* If this file shows up (it's an ugly blackish icon that will have
the name 'sulfnbk.exe')
* DO NOT OPEN IT
* RIGHT click on the file - go down to delete and left click.
* It will ask you if you want to send it to the recycle bin, say
yes.
* Go to your desktop (where all your icons are) and double click
on the recycle bin.
* Right click on sulfnbk.exe and delete again - or empty the bin.
REMEMBER: If you find it send this email to all the people in your address book, because that's how it's transferred.>
