I have set my message rules to send the Snow White Virus (if that's what it's called)directly to my deleted items file when it comes in...but it comes in every day.
I have updated my virus profiles each day and scan the computer regularly.
I'm thinking that since it comes in each day, that my computer may be the sender. Is that possible or is this thing just floating around out there all the time?
 
Go to a virus software website such as Symantec or Computer Associates and look up W95.Hybris.gen (Snowhite). You will find what files in your pc may still need to be fixed. Encourage your friends to get virus protection or tell them to get your addy out of their contacts! I have seen 3 instances of snowhite, and just deleting the email without opening it or its attachment caused no "infection". kms
