Sorry folks but i too had this virus!
Dear Friends:
I received the message below, and found that my C drive contained a
potential virus that is passed through information contained in the
Address
Book.
My address book then was infected.Since you are in my address book,
there
is a good chance you will find it in your computer too. If so follow the
directions below and eradicate the virus easily.
Sorry for the inconvenience.
The Virus (called jdbgmgr.exe) is not detected by Norton or McAfee or
AntiVir
anti-virus systems.
The virus sits quietly for 14 days before damaging the system.
It is sent automatically by messenger and by the address book, whether
or
not you sent emails to your contacts.
Here's how to check for the virus and how to get rid of it.
1. Go to Start, Find or Search option
2. In the file/folders option, type the name: jdbgmgr.exe
3. Be sure you search your C: drive and all sub-folders 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 (on the menu bar), choose "select all" to highlight the
file
without opening it.
7. Now go to File (on the menu bar) and select delete. It will then go
to
the Recycle Bin.
8. Go to the 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 inconvenience.
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....enter subject.....paste to e-mail.....send.
