I've received several of these warnings from very well meaning e-friends/associates, so I figured it's important enough to pass this information on ... the e-mail reads, "PLEASE PAY CLOSE ATTENTION!!! YOU MAY HAVE A DEADLY VIRUS ON YOUR COMPUTER ... ... SULFNBK.EXE -- ON JUNE 1, 2001 IT WILL OPEN AND DESTROY YOUR HARD DRIVE. NO ONE KNOWS WHERE IT CAME FROM AND THIS IS THE ONLY WAY TO GET RID OF IT ... ..."
This is a bogus virus warning ... don't delete Sulfnbk.exe!
Sulfnbk.exe is a legitimate Win98 operating system file, so anyone running Windows 98 will find it. If you've fallen victim to this hoax and deleted this file ... visit http://antivirus.about.com/compute/antivirus/library/weekly/ aa052601a.htm?nk=r1&terms=SULFNBK.EXE or do a web search for 'Restoring Sulfnbk.exe'.
However! If a Sulfnbk.exe comes attached to an e-mail -- don't open it -- any executable has the potential to be infected.
