Folks,

Appended is an e-mail from my bother, Charles Jackson, concerning a virus.

I followed the instructions and found that the file named sulfnbk.exe made
it onto my computer. I deleted it just a few minutes ago.

Not much chance that I've passed it along since it is an executable that
apparently gets triggered by clicking on it with the left mouse button or by
passage of time.

However, there is a small chance that it is executed by some other event as
well, such as rebooting or opening some registry file.

Just in case, please make the check and eliminate the file according to the
instructions.

Be careful to not left click on the file or it will execute.

Regards,

Vernon
