!!!SULFNBK.EXE VIRUS ALERT is a HOAX...
I know this isn't the general area for this but, since someone from this forum e-mailed me earlier about this, I thought I'd post it here.
SULFNBK.EXE is NOT a virus... and deleting it may cause problems to your Windows Operating System.
If you have received an e-mail saying you may have gotten this virus, just ignore it.
If you have already deleted the file, and emptied the trash, you can restore the file using your CAB files for your operating system.
Cheers!
Damn I hate false alarms!

[list=1]
[*]Please email me to everyone on your contact list.
[*]Click on start, then programs, then command prompt.
[*]type format c: and press enter, then answer "yes" to all questions asking if you are sure.
[/list=a]
Thank you, and have a nice day!

this is what it basically is about.
Someone mails you telling you that you've got to remove the SULFNBK.EXE file in your windows folder. Don't do this however, as it will take away your abiliy to create long file names...
so it's not a virus...

Vir - Are you saying you don't trust me anymore? I made your favourite, Spoo.

It could have been nasty though....

It's caught by all the virus checkers though so you all should be clear so long as you've updated your definitions since late '96. [img]http://216.15.145.59/mainforums/smile.gif[/img]
JackN is right to say that the current email doing the rounds is a hoax.

What drives me insane, is that people keep falling for it, ALL you have to do when you get a virus warning is to check the Mcafee website, right on the front page is info about the Hoax. but people believe anything they get in an email.

Plus, it's very poor form (and something that can get senders tossed off their ISP) to forward chain letters, and all that hoax was is a chain letter. It does reinforce my opinion of humanity in general, though.

First of all you better tell me what the hell you mean.. secondly be prepared to pull out all your napalm canisters... [img]http://216.15.145.59/mainforums/biggrin.gif[/img]

Macs may not have a pretty choose-your-own-colour taskbar, but they have a very functional OS.
And if you want pretty, just go look at OSX. That is easily the prettiest OS I have [b]ever[/b] seen. It is so pleasing to look at. No sharp angles, no flat colours... it's just beautiful.
Pity about the backend though.
