Subject: Virus Detected



I just received a message from one of my contacts that my address book may
have been infected by a virus (called jdbgmgr.exe) not detected by Norton or
McAfee anitvirus systems. The virus stays quiet for 14 days before damaging
the system. It is sent automatically by the Messenger and by the address
book, whether or not you sent e-mails to your comtacts. I checked, found and
deleted it. NOW IT IS YOUR TURN!!

1. Go to Start, Find or Search option.
2. In the Files/Folder option, write the name jdbgmgr.exe
3. Be sure you search in your C: drive
4. Click "FInd now"
5. The virus has a little bear icon with the name jdbgmgr.exe.
DO NOTOPEN IT!!!
6. Right click on the file in the lower box and delete it. (It will then go
to the Recycle bin.)
7. Go to the Recycle bin and delete it there aws well, or empty the bin.

If you find the virus you must immediately contact all the people in your
address book so they can eradicate it in their own address books, not spread
it, nor return it to you.
