This is total bollocks do not delete this file!

If you do then goto norton put the file in the search engine and follow the instructions to replace it.
The loss of the file should not mess windows up but should be replaced.

you have been warned!

(there is even a chinese version!):eek:
 
So it´s floating around again.

Got this for about 6 months ago, and i warned my friends about this hoax.
But some of them didn´t finished to read the mail just followed the name and deleted it.

No probs like you wrote but the problem you can get is that you can´t read and write long filenames.
You will become in the old dos model 8.3 that means for the novice one - abcdefgh.ijk

Copykat
 
Could have been worse

Anybody who gets crap like this should post here!;)

Can somebody post the file sulfnbk.exe as I've got OEM windows and would have to reinstall it.(not that I deleted it of course)!:rolleyes: :eek:
 
hoax

yeah it got me last time
for those interested you can get out your windows disk and go thru the cab files till you find it then replace it

the only thing is though the file updated its time stamp on several of my families computers--i told all to delete...got the orig file of the win disk and sent it

it made me nervous because the time stamp was for the exact day that the 'virus' was to launch--i played it safe deleted then replaced with the original

everybody said 'hoax' but when a files date stamp has changed and it is not suppose to i kill it
