Hey all,
I received this email from the owner of a local
market. I did what the email said to do and found the teddy bear icon and
virus, so have deleted them. I am sending this on to all of you who are in
my address book so you can do the same thing and look for this virus on your
hard drives.

Subject: virus A virus has been passed on to me by a contact.There is a chance that you will find it in your computer too as you are in my address book. You can follow the instructions below and eradicate the virus easily. The virus ( called jdbgmgr.exe ) is not detected by Norton or Macafee anti-virus system. This virus sits quietly for 14 days before damaging the system. It is sent automatically by messenger and the address book, whether or not you send e-mails to your contacts. Here's how to 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 you search your C-drive and all the sub-folders and any other drives you may have. 4. Click: ' Find now ' 5. The virus has a grey teddy bear icon with the name 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 the 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. To do this : 1. Open a new e-mail message 2. Click the icon of the address book next to the 'To' 3. Highlight every name and add to ' BCC ' 4. Copy this message, enter subject and paste to e-mail and send. Remember you have to do this very quickly. Sorry for the inconvenience! |
