The ElfBowl and Frogpult Virus Hoax
The Royal Bank of Scotland have issued a
virus warning regarding 2 small games files
that are doing the rounds at the moment.
These files are FROGPULT.EXE and ELFBOWL.EXE
which you may or may not have seen recently.
The hidden virus is said to be on a timer
and due to kick in on Christmas Day
reputedly to crash your hard drive if it is
stored there.
TAKE NO CHANCES, delete these files from
your hard drive and also from within your
E-MAIL messages if they have been sent to
you.
Please inform anyone else that you think may
have had these files and your Sytem
Administrator if you are on a network.
Some versions of the above hoax mention only ElfBowl and a number of versions mention some other organization rather than the 'Royal Bank'.
