Guest guest Posted April 23, 2002 Report Share Posted April 23, 2002 Follow this link to Symantec's website...they can take you to instructions for restoring the file, however it is NOT necessary for running Windows. This file restores long file names in the event they become corrupted on your machine.....it will run just fine without it! http://securityresponse.symantec.com/avcenter/venc/data/sulfnbk.exe.warning. html Jim So have you seen our website at http://www.jimandkelli.com/ ?

Guest guest Posted April 24, 2002 Report Share Posted April 24, 2002 This is a hoax everyone. We, all of us with Windows have that file. It won't harm your computer if you remove it, but it is NOT a virus. Jeanne in WI Age 38 Open RNY 05/21/2002 314/ /150-175 5' 8 " djgraves@...

Guest guest Posted April 24, 2002 Report Share Posted April 24, 2002 Go to your virus protection page, or to your Windows downloads page and search for the file, then you can dopwnload it. I saw someone else post that it wouldn't hurt your computer to not have it anymore, but the last time this went around, Microsoft told me that it is a file that allows your system to " remember " files names with long addresses and that it is a necessary file. ===== Micki (not Mikki) in Baltimore, MD Aetna/US Healthcare Open RNY April 29, 2002 351.8/BMI 62 Dr. Schweitzer, Sinai Baltimore " Keep your eye on the prize and stoke the fire within!!
