Last Updated on: May 29, 2001 at 06:22:42 AM PDT
The following hoax email has been reported in Brazil. The original email is in
Portuguese; it is followed by an English translation.
CAUTIONS:
This particular email message is a hoax. The file that is mentioned in the
hoax, however, Sulfnbk.exe, is a Microsoft Windows utility that is used to
restore long file names, and like any .exe file, it can be infected by a virus
that targets .exe files.
The virus/worm W32.Magistr.24876@mm can arrive as an attachment
named Sulfnbk.exe. The Sulfnbk.exe file used by Windows is located in
the C:\Windows\Command folder. If the file is located in any other folder,
or arrives as an attachment to a email message, then it is possible that
the file is infected. In this case, if a scan with the latest virus definitions
and with NAV set to scan all files does not detect the file as being
infected, quarantine and submit the file to SARC for analysis by following
the instructions in the document How to submit a file to SARC using Scan
and Deliver.
If you have deleted the Sulfnbk.exe file from the C:\Windows\Command
folder and want to know how to restore the file, you should contact your
computer manufacturer or Microsoft for assistance. As an alternative, If
you are running Windows 98 or Windows Me, see the document How to
extract files in Safe Mode under Windows 98 or Windows Millennium.
NOTE: The instructions in this document are provided for your
convenience. The extraction of Windows files uses Microsoft
programs and commands. Symantec does not provide warranty
support for or assistance with Microsoft products.
