This file is a MS file. Just looks like a virus, cause the icon is so 3rd grade. But the file was written by MS. If you delete this, you will loose all of your long file names. Like MyDocu~1 or close.

Your welcome...

This virus supposedly is programmed to activate after being on
your C drive
for a while.Because of the delay in activation, it does not get
picked up by
the antivirus programs like McAfee or Norton. No one knows how
long this
virus has been on the system. It is possible that it has been
around for
several months. When it does become active, it will erase all
files and
folders on your hard drive. The virus gets spread when you send
out emails
and filters into C:\WINDOWS\COMMAND. In order to find this virus,
follow the
instructions below:

* Click on "start"
* Choose "search" or "find"
* Choose "files and folders"
* Select "find"
* Select "C drive"
* Name of file to search for: SULFNBK.EXE

If you find this file, DO NOT OPEN IT! Select by right clicking
on your
mouse and DELETE it. Then close the window and EMPTY your RECYCLE
BIN

The good news is that YOU HAVE ELIMINATED THE VIRUS on YOUR
computer.
The bad news is that you have transmitted this virus to anyone you
may have
e-mailed in the last month. Thus the reason for this message.
