Hoax email virus warning

Its doing the rounds again, here in the UK.
The one that suggests your system has been infected and evryone in your address book has been sent the virus too.
It prompts you to search system files and delete the one with the " small bear " alongside, then empty the recycle bin.

I got caught with this last year, and for the life of me cant remember how to restore the file.

Can anyone help, as a friend has just carried out the instructions and I cant help.
Cheers Q
