RE: Offtopic, inappropriate jokes?

[Scott Stone <SStone@example.com>]

yeah the SUFLBK thing came around our office too.  apparently it's some
system file that exists on 98/95 and you can bork your system if you remove
it.  I haven't checked my 98 systems to see what the file is, yet, but Win2k
seems to not have it.

But it's a hoax, not a virus.  Kind of like IIS security.

The jokes are supposed to be funny.

Separately, there was recently a flurry of little panics
about a "SULFBK.EXE" virus.  The warning came to a colleague
via a Mongolian correspondent, who claimed that their entire
lab had been infected.  Click here, click there, delete this
file, the instructions said, and hurry up because it will do
all sorts of unthinkably nasty things on 1 June.  And send this
message to everyone you have ever corresponded with.

Sound familiar?  Anyone remember a TLUG posting that began,
"This virus operates on the honor system"?

Cheers,
Frank
