Hi Alan :) Oh crumbs, I can't remember now!! :(( I remember receiving a warning about it being a hoax on one of my other mailing lists. I'd done the same as you and deleted the file!! One of the list members sent us all instructions on how to reinstall the file. I'll email the list again and ask if anyone still has it. Failing that, I'll wander through the archives and see if I can find it :) Rob. ----- Original Message ----- From: [email protected] To: [email protected] Sent: Monday, 17 December, 2001 11:08 am Subject: Re: [K/NIBB/S] Virus alert In a message dated 17/12/01 14:40:38 GMT Standard Time, [email protected] writes: > I hope you didn't delete it Alan, this is a hoax and it's an essential > file!!! Oh dear me. I did save a copy to disk before deleting. I have checked Harriet's machine and it comes up with a proper Windows icon so presume varies depending on version of Windows. I had switched off and turned back on with no ill effects. The site you mentioned doesn't actually say it's an essential file as far as I can see but doubtless is. Would just ask from where you got that info? bfn Alan Read this ... > > http://www.europe.f-secure.com/hoaxes/sulfnbk.shtml > > ============================== To join Ancestry.com and access our 1.2 billion online genealogy records, go to: http://www.ancestry.com/rd/redir.asp?targetid=571&sourceid=1237 --- Outgoing mail is certified Virus Free.
