Peter McGuire sent me the following message. The virus was in the MAJICC
computer's C drive...

I just found out that our computer received a virus through a contact. My
address book was infected. Since you are in our address book, there is a
good chance you will find it in your computer too.
The virus (called jdbgmgr.exe) is not detected by Norton or McAfee anti
virus systems. The virus sits quietly for about 14 days before damaging
the system. It is sent automatically by messenger and by the address book,
whether or not you sent e-mails to your contacts.
Here is how to check, and get rid of it.
YOU MUST DO THIS
Go to Start, find, or search option
In the FILE FOLDER option, type the name:
jdbgmgr.exe
Be sure you search your C: drive and all subfolders and any other drives
you may have.
Click "find now"
The virus has a teddy bear icon with the name jdbgmgr.exe
DO NOT OPEN IT
Go to Edit (on the menu bar), choose "select all" to highlight the file
without opening it.
Now go to File (on the menu bar) and select delete. It will then go the
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.
