Hello - a friend has just sent me this news! so sorry about this but it was on my system so please check yours Julie Dear All, 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 McAfee 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 is how to check for the virus, and how to get rid of it: 1. Go to Start, click on Find or Search option 2. In the file folder option, type the name jdbgmgr.exe 3. be sure your search your C: drive and all subfolders and all 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 Menu Bar) and "select all" to highlight the file without opening it. 7. Now go to File (on menu bar) and select delete. It will then go to the recycle bin. 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. To do this: a. Open a new e-mail message b. Click the icon of the address book next to the "to" c. Highlight every name and add to "BCC" d. Copy this message and paste into e-mail.
