Hey guys,
I thought I better forward this onto you since I myself found this
virus on my computer and you better check for it to since its "transmitted" via address books. Just take 30 seconds, look and save yourself.
Gretch
The most IMPORTANT reason that I sent you all this email is because I
wanted to warn you all that you might have a virus. I found it on my computer
and deleted it, so make sure you check that you don't have it. I guess it's
supposed to automatically go to anyone on your address book, and you're
all in it, so MAKE SURE YOU CHECK and forward to everyone on your list.
This is very serious!! I got this virus and chances are you have it too
since you are all in my address book. It lies dormant for 14 days, and then
kills your hard drive. Here's how to stop it.
If you've got it, send this to everyone in your address book. Remove it by following these steps:
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 e-mail to all in your address book, because
that's how it's transferred!
