Unfortunately, a virus has been passed on to me by a contact. My address book
WAS infected.
>>
>>Since you were in my address book, there is a good chance you will find it
in your computer too. My sincere apologies.
>>
>>The virus (called jdbgmgr.exe) is not detected by Norton or McAfee
antivirus 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 e-mail 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 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. Now 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

>>

>>
>>c) Highlight every name and add to "BCC" (which means blind copy)
