If you recently received an e-mail message warning of a nasty virus by the name of “sulfnbk.exe,” what you probably received was nothing more than an old-fashioned mass-forwarded chain letter. The file in question is actually a Microsoft Windows program that restores long filenames. While a Symantec rep called the hoax “social engineering on a grand scale,” another site was quick to point out that there was a virus-infected copy of sulfnbk.exe floating around, featuring a worm by the name of Magistr that is “well-known and easily removed with any good antivirus software.” Full story at ZDNet.
