Guest guest Posted March 11, 2002 Report Share Posted March 11, 2002 My dear brother sent me a virus which wasn't detected by my anti-virus software, McAffee clinic! So here are the directions to delete it! Please do so IMMEDIATELY!! It's a nasty one!! It sends itself to everyone in one's address book on the computer it has arrived at. The virus hides in the computer for 2 weeks, then damages the hard disk irreparably. 1. Go to " start " and click on " find " 2. In the box " find files or folders " type in " sulfnbk.exe " , the name of the virus 3. Make sure you are searching in the C-drive (check the box marked " search in " ) 4. Click on " find " 5. If the file is found, you will see an ugly black icon with the name of the virus: sulfnbk.exe. The file is a program. DO NOT OPEN IT!!!!!!!! If it doesn't appear try the same procedure again. 6. Right click the mouse button, on the file, and left click the " delete' button. 7. You will be asked if you want to send the file to the wastebasket - respond " yes " . 8. Go to the Desktop (where all the icons are), open the wastebasket (also known as the recycle bin) and eliminate the file, either by emptying the entire wastebasket, or manually. 9. If you find the virus in your computer, send this email to all the people in your address book, because the virus is transmitted this way, and if you don't warn them, aside from ruining their hard disk, it will come back to you if you are in their address book! I was sent the virus on or about March 3rd!! Don't delay in deleting this virus!! Elly Cyr Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
