Subject: Virus alert!
Dear All, please call me on my home phone number if you want to check
whether this email is really from me - it was passed to me from a
friend -we checked that he had actually sent it and then found the virus
on
our computer. His message reads :
"BlankA virus has been passed to me by a contact. Since you are in my
address book there is a good chance you will find it in your computer
too.
I followed the direction below and eradicated the virus easily. The
virus
(called jdbgmgr.exe) 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 the address book whether or
not
you sent emails to your contacts.
Here is how you check for the virus and 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 to search your C: drive and all the subfolders 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 the file (on the menu bar) and select delete. It will then
go
to the recycle bin.
IF YOU FIND THIS 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 on the icon of the address book next to the "TO"
(c) Highlight every name and add to "BCC"
(d) Copy this message above and paste to e-mail.
(e) Enter subject"
Apologies if we have passed it on to you. M & D
