[rohrpost] virus?

[Arnold von Wedemeyer <arnold@von-wedemeyer.de>]

ich weiß nicht was da dran ist (s.u.), vielleicht der eigentliche virus,
indem man eine systemdatei löscht.
hatte die datei vorher auf meinem rechner, startet jetzt trotzdem.
die datei hat außerdem ein icon, das nicht gerade nach microsoft aussieht,
also immerhin vorsicht (command-verzeichnis) - falls wahr, ist nicht mehr
viel zeit..


URGENT. A VIRUS could be in your computer files now, dormant but will 
become 
active on June 1. FOLLOW DIRECTIONS BELOW TO CHECK IF 
YOU HAVE IT AND TO REMOVE IT NOW. 
It was brought to my attention yesterday that a virus is in circulation 
via 
email. I looked for it and to my surprise I found it on mine. 
please follow the directions and remove it from yours TODAY!!!!!!! 
No Virus software can detect it. It will become active on June 1, 2001. 
might 
be too late by then. 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. Many major companies have found this virus on their 
computers. Please help your friends !!!!!!!! 
DO NOT RELY ON YOUR ANTI-VIRUS SOFTWARE. McAFEE and NORTON CANNOT 
DETECT IT BECAUSE IT DOES NOT BECOME A VIRUS UNTIL JUNE 1ST. 
WHATEVER YOU DO, DO NOT OPEN THE FILE!!!
