I ran an antivirus check on the virus Nancy described in her last message and
no virus was detected in my system. Then I went to the Symantec website (Norton
Antivirus) to find out more about this virus. They described it as a hoax.
There is a valid file in Windows with that name, and you can cause more
problems if you delete it. Before automatically deleting it, check out the
information at

<p>I was just told there might be a virus dormant in your system while
helping
<br>the lady I take care of find it in her system. I did a file find and
I did
<br>find it in my hard drive. It was not detected by my antivirus software.
The
<br>file/virus name is sulfnbk.exe and it lies dormant in your hard drive
and
<br>after 14 days crashes your system. To check if you have have this virus,
do
<br>the following:
<p>1. Go to start menu and do a find/search.
<br>2. Type in sulfnbk.exe and be sure you are searching the C drive.
<br>3. If you have the file, it will appear as a black icon with the file
name
<br>sulfnbk.exe
<br>4. If you do not find the file, do a new search to double check that
you do
<br>not have the file in your system.
<br>5. If you do have this file, DO NOT OPEN IT. Right click on the icon
and
<br>select delete. When it asks if you want to send this file to the recycle
<br>bin, say yes.
<br>6. Go to the recycle bin and empty it.
<p>If you do have it, please send this message to everyone in your address
<br>book, as that is how it is spread.
