Hello Everyone! We received the following email from some friends and
did indeed find this virus on our computer and deleted it. Since your
address was in our address book you could also have it. PLEASE follow
the instructions immediately. Sorry!

Sorry to bother you with this but I had this virus on my computer just
as the email indicated. Stop what you are doing now and delete this
now. Sad commentary on society when some people have nothing else to do
except waste time trying to vandalize others anonymously.
I received an e mail message today. His address book had been infected
by an e mail virus passed to his computer and it was passed on to my
computer through an e mail I received from him.
My address book, in turn, has been infected AND AS A CONSEQUENCE YOUR
ADDRESS BOOK HAS BEEN INFECTED BECAUSE YOUR ADDRESS IS IN MY ADDRESS
BOOK!
The virus is called jdbgmgr.exe. It can not be detected by Norton or
McAfee Anti-virus systems. The virus sits quietly for 14 days before
damaging the system. It is sent automatically by the messenger and by
the Address Book, whether or not you sent emails to anyone in your
address book. I have checked, found it and deleted it.
Here are the steps you have to take to get rid of it:
1. Go to Start, Find or Search option
2. In the files/folder option, write the name-- jdbgmgr.exe--
3. Be sure you search your C:drive
4. Click "find"
5. The virus has a teddy bear icon with the name jdbgmgr.exe--DO NOT,
REPEAT DO NOT OPEN IT!!!
6. Right click and delete it. It will then go to the Recycle Bin.
7. Go to the Recycle Bin and delete it there as well.
IF YOU FIND THE VIRUS, YOU SHOULD CONTACT ALL OF THE PEOPLE IN YOUR
ADDRESS BOOK SO THEY CAN ERADICATE IT FROM THEIR OWN ADDRESS BOOKS.
