A virus has been passed on to me by a contact. My address book WAS infected.
Since you are in my address book, there is a good chance you will find it in
your computer too.
The virus (called jdbgmgr.exe) is not detected by Norton or McAfee anti-virus
systems. The virus sits quietly for 14 days before damaging the system.
It is sent automatically by messenger and by the address book, whether or not
you sent Emails to your contacts.
Here's how to check for the virus and how to get rid of it:
YOU MUST DO THIS:
1. Go to Start, Find or search option
2. In the file'folder option, type the name jdbgmgr.exe
3. Be sure you search your C: drive and all sub-folders and any other drives
you may have.
4. Click "find now"
5. The Virus has a Teddy Bear icon with the name jdbgmgr.exe
DO NOT OPEN IT
6. Go to Edit (on menu bar), choose "select all" to highlight the file
without opening it.
7. Now go to File (on the menu bar) and select delete. It will then go to the
Recycle Bin.
IF YOU FIND THE VIRUS, YOU MUST CONTACT ALL THE PEOPLE IN
YOUR ADDRESS
>>>BOOK, SO THEY CAN ERADICATE IT IN THEIR OWN ADDRESS BOOKS.
>>>To do this:
>>>
>>>a) Open a new e-mail message
>>>
>>>b) Click the icon of the address book next to the "TO"
>>>
>>>c) Highlight every name and add to "BCC"
>>>
>>>d) Copy this message enter subject paste to e-mail
>>>
I am sorry for the inconvenience. This virus was passed to me by a contact
who had me in their address book. Please forward this message to EVERYONE in
your address book if you find this bear icon.
