seemingly transmittable without an attachment. Whether this is badtrans I don't

suggested to me that in order to keep a virus from attaching itself to your
address book, do the following.<BR><BR>Create a ficticious address, one that
starts with a 0 (zero) or anything that will be at the top of your address
book.<BR><BR>For example </FONT><A href="mailto:0001@virus.com"><FONT

address book, it will come up that it could not send it because of bad address.

virus check after all !! It's a hoax<BR><BR>My son who knows his PCs tells me
this is a VIRUS HOAX. The sulfnbk.exe is a Windows system utility file for
restoring long file names (a maintenance procedure). If you have deleted
it, insert your windows 98/95 install CD and click on start button >
find > files and in dialogue box search for the file name sulfnbk.exe
and copy it into your Windows\Command File folder . This should restore the file
to its proper place. If you cant restore it dont freak as it probably
wont upset your system. Or ask someone who really knows this stuff!
For further info enter the search terms " sulfnbk.exe " and " virus
hoax"<BR>in any search engine.<BR><BR>M son suggests anyone worried about
viruses keeps up to date by regularly checking a virus/security web-site.
Then we dont need to panic when this kind of thing comes
through.<BR>Richard Sisley<BR></DIV></FONT></FONT></BODY></HTML>
