Unfortunately a virus has been passed on to us by a contact. Our address
book was infected. Since you are in our 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 antivirus systems. This 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 any e-mails 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 you C: drive and all subfolders 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 the menu bar and choose "select all" to highlight the file
without opening it.
7. Go to File on the menu bar and select delete. It will then go to the
Recycle Bin.
8. 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 the BCC
d: Copy this message and paste to e-mail
