Dear All
A virus has been passed on to us 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
Sorry for the inconvenience.
