Do you just put wink* in the search files & folders box? And what would the
registry key say? Do you just delete it?--Glo

If you have Outlook or Outlook Express and you opened (or maybe even just
previewed) the mail, there is a chance that you might be infected. Did you
do a search for the wink* files? Did you look in the registry to see if
the keys were added? I'm fairly certain that it didn't infect here, so I
haven't read the instructions too thoroughly for the tool. I would assume
it's from the floppy, but you might want to check.
On 5/15/2003 at 1:50 AM a whisper was heard, and the one known as Glo was
rumoured to have uttered....
| Wyatt, is there a way to find out if it's in the
| mailbox? As you know, there
| was no attachment with this, just lots of squirrelly text. So
| is it
| possible that I rec'd the dastardly email but am NOT infected?
| I've been
| to the Symantec site you recommended and downloaded the fix to
| a floppy,
| also printed the instructions for disabling Sys. Restore (I
| run Millenium),
| but I don't understand from those instructions if you need to
| restart in
| Safe Mode if you're running the removal tool from a floppy?

| AVG didn't find it here because I don't use Windows
| addressbook, OE,
| Outlook, or HTML mail. It is conceivable that you can
| download it into
| your mailbox and not be infected as long as you don't execute
| any
| attachments.

| | All the sysmptoms of a virus, and Norton
| apparently spotted
| | it. AVG did
| | not. Am I infected, I ask? What are the next
| steps required if
| | any?
| | Also, of interest - my desktop icons were all

| of.
