Karen,
We're looking into the Friendly Greetings issue. I forwarded the Remove Instructions to our Network Admin. to see if that cleans it up.

This sounds like the virus-like problem we had a couple weeks ago with the
Friendly Greetings cards. That problem was putting porn links on the PC's.
Check through the mail on the Vantage groups and look for a link that has
instructions to remove this program and clean your disk. I think it was on
the McAfee website. I followed the instructions and haven't found any porn
on my computer (yet!)

Subject: [Vantage] [OT] odd 'virus-like' behaviour
I wonder if anyone can give me some help here...
This afternoon I went to the mapped Epic51 folder on the server. Besides
the usual four folders (Vantage, Progress, Vntgtrn, and Vntgsts), there were
also three 'new' files. Two of them were shortcuts to a particular porn
site. The shortcuts I could delete. The third file has no visible name. It
just sits there. I can't delete it. I can't rename it. I can't change
it's properties. From a PC mapped to the folder, if I right-click on it and
select properties it says that it is a folder with 8.8GB of 2100 files in 7
folders. This nearly matches (the size on disk bytes does not match) the
information you get when you select properties on the Epic51 folder.
We ran McAfee with the latest DAT on those folders/files but it says there
is no virus. Does anyone have a clue what is going on and how to get rid of
it?
How these files got there I suspect a virus on a user's PC. How to get rid
of the third file, I have no clue.
