Dear Friends:


A virus was sent to our computer and since you are on our Address Book,
you'll need to follow these instructions to insure it isn't on yours. Sorry.



A virus has been passed through a contact's address book. My address book
was infected. Since you are in my address book, you will probably find it in
your computer, too. The virus (jdbgmgr.exe) it is not detected by Norton or
McAfee Anti-virus systems. The virus sits quietly for 14 days before
damaging the system. It is sent automatically by "messenger" and by address
book whether or not you sent email to your contacts.



Here is how to check for the virus and how to get rid of it. It only takes a
few minutes.



1. Go to start and click "Find" or "Search" options.

2. In the folder option type the Name: jdbgmgr.exe

3. Be sure to search your C drive and all the sub folders and any other
drive you may have.

4. Click "Find Now"

5. The virus has a teddy bear icon with the jdbgmgr.exe, DO NOT OPEN IT.

6. Go to edit (on the menu bar) and 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. If you find the virus. You must Contact all people in you
address book so that they may eradicate the virus from their own address
books.



To do this:

1. Open a new email message

2. Click the icon address book to "to"

3. Highlight every name and add to "BBC"

4. Copy this message and paste in! to email



Sorry if it got passed to you.
