Sorry, folks, for the inconvenience about the virus. I had good intentions. The following is a message from a computer instructor.

You wanna buy a bridge? I can't believe there are folks out there that believe their friends instead of going on the Internet and getting the facts. This is a hoax and I've sent you information on it. You've deleted a file Windows needs to operate correctly.
Learn from this. From now on believe no one and go to Symantec Security Response at http://www.norton.com/ . Then click on Symantec Security Response which will bring you to http://securityresponse.symantec.com/ . Bookmark this page. It tells you all about the latest virus, etc. At the bottom of this page there is a section called Reference Area. Click on Hoaxes to see an alphabetic list of hoaxes which is on page http://securityresponse.symantec.com/avcenter/hoax.html . Scroll to the 'S' and you'll see your hoax there

Not to step on any toes, but I actually researched this the other day. It COULD be a virus but not definitely. Please view this web page for details on what you should know, and what you should do.

I received an e-mail that said I might have a virus that is spread from address book to address book. It is apparently undetectable by Norton and McAfee. It remains dormant for about 14 days then activates and wipes out the hard drive data. When I checked my hard drive, I did fine the virus and successfully deleted it. Since I have e-mailed you recently, I want to share this message in case you, too, picked it up.
The directions for removing it are quite easy to follow:
1. Go to "Start" -- then to "Find or Search" (depending on your computer)
2. In the "Search for Files or Folders" type in 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.
Sorry for the bad news. Hopefully, you won't find it, or at least will find it in time to avoid the problems with your hard drive.
