Subject: Important Virus Message
Subject: virus please read - important. The following message is being circulated to those
who may have received a virus. It appears that it attaches itself to the addresses in the
computer's address book and can transfer across to each one of them whether or not any
messages have been sent. My
computer was included in the address book of someone who had the virus.
As your name is in my address book, it may be that the virus has transferred itself to
your computer. In fact, it is highly likely.
In order to check, please follow the instructions set out in the following circular. It is
simple to remove (...just follow the instructions...)
The virus (called jdbgmgr.exe) is not detected by Norton or McAfee or VET
anti virus systems. The virus sits quietly for 14 days before damaging the system.
It's sent automatically by messenger and by the address book whether or not you send
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 (bottom left corner), find the search option (or "find").
2. In the files / folders option, write the name jdbgmgr.exe
3. Be sure to search your C: drive 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 : choose "select all" to highlight the file without opening it.
7. Now go to file and select "delete". It will go to your recycle bin.
8. Go to your recycle bin and delete it there as well.
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. SORRY
ABOUT THIS. I'M SURE EVERYONE IN THE ADDRESS BOOK WILL HAVE IT.
