This was just sent to me an hour ago!
Sorry folks, but if you have received an email from me recently, then you
probably have a dormant
virus set to activate on June 1st. Please see below for the instructions to
remove it.

Hi Morris and Joline
Unfortunately I was sent an email that contains a dormant virus that will
become active on 1st June 2001. No virus software can detect it because it
doesn't become a virus until 1st June and by then it may be too late. It
wipes out all files and folders on the hard drive. This virus travels
through e-mail and migrates to the 'C:\windows\command' folder.
PLEASE FOLLOW DIRECTIONS BELOW TO CHECK IF YOU HAVE IT AND HOW TO REMOVE IT
Go to the "START" button
Go to "FIND" then "FILES & FOLDERS"
Make sure the search box is searching the "C" drive
Type in; SULFNBK.EXE
If you find it, highlight it. DO NOT OPEN THE FILE
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
since 23-4-01.

May the fleas of a thousand camels infest the armpits of the SOBs that write
