THEN.I was sent this a few minutes ago - and found the virus on my computer !
Following the instructions, I deleted it without difficulty. I strongly
suggest you do the same check.
********************************
It was brought to my attention yesterday that a virus was on all of
our computers here at work. I do not know how long it has been on our
computers, but Virus software can not detect it. It will not become
active until June 1, 2001, at that point it will become active and
will be to late.
It wipes out all files and folders on the hard drive.
This virus travels thru E-mail and migrates to the
'C:\windows\command' folder.
To find it and get rid of it off of 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.
Go to 'File' and delete it.
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 know how long this has been on our
computers. Two computers at Midlands Tech. have been found with this virus
on it. One I had sent E-mail to, one I have not.
DO NOT RELY ON YOUR ANTI-VIRUS SOFTWARE. McAFEE NOR NORTON CAN DETECT IT
BECAUSE IT DOES NOT BECOME A VIRUS UNTIL JUNE 1ST. IT WILL BE TOO LATE
WHATEVER YOU DO, DO NOT OPEN THE FILE!!!
