Subject: Virus alert
Sorry, everybody! A virus has been passed on to me by
a contact. My address book was infected. Since you
are in my book, there is a good chance you have been
infected too. The Virus (called jdbgmgr.exe) is not
detected by Norton or McFee anti-virus system. The
virus sits quietly for 14 days before damaging the
system. It is automatically transmitted by the
address book - whether or not you sent e-mails to your
contacts! Here's how to check for the virus and to
get rid of it:
1) Go to the 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 the 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 into your recycle bin.
If you find the virus, you MUST contact all of the
people in your address book so they can eradicate it
in their own address book.
To do this:
a) Open a new e-mail
b) Click the icon of the address book next to the
"to"
c) Highlight every name and ad to "BCC"
d) Copy this message and pass into e-mail
Again, I am sorry for the inconvenience. Please
forward this to everybody in your address book!!!
