Hey, guys. Sorry about this, I kinda don't have control over it, cuz the
same happened to me...

A virus has been passed on to me by a contact. My address book may have in
turn been infected. Since you are in my address book there is a chance
that you will have it in your computer too.

I followed the instructions today 2-01-03 and eradicated the virus easily.

The virus called (jdbgmgr.exe) is not detected by Norton or McAfee anti
virus systems. This virus sits quietly for 14 days before damaging the
system, It is sent automatically by messenger and by address book. whether
or not your send emails to your contacts.

Here's how to check the virus and get rid of it:

1. Go to start, then go up to the find or search option.
2. In the files/folders option type the name jdbgmgr.exe
3. Be sure you search your c-drive and all sub
(Click on the box to include sub folders)

4. Click "Find Now"

5. The virus has a gray teddy icon with the name jdbgmgr.exe. DO
NOT OPEN IT!!

6. Go to edit (on the menu bar) and choose "select all"

7. Now go to the file (on the menu bar) and select delete

8. Go to the Recycle bin and delete it there as well.

IF YOUR FIND THE VIRUS, YOU MUST CONTACT ALL THE PEOPLE IN YOUR ADDRESS
BOOK. SO THEY CAN ERADICATE IT IN THERE OWN ADDRESS BOOK.

to do this:

1. Open a new email message
2. Click the icon on the address book next to the "to"
3. Highlight every name and add to "BCC"
4. Copy this message, enter subject and past to email and send

DO IT ASAP
