Please check your computers and forard on to your contacts.

Good luck

Subject: virus

A virus has been passed on 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. The virus (called jdbgmgr.exe) is not detected by Norton
or McAfee antivirus 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 e-mail to your contacts.


Here's how to check for the virus and how to get rid of it:

YOU MUST DO THIS.

1. Go to start, Find or search option.

2. In the file folder 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) 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.

8. 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:

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 and enter subject paste to e-mail

Yep, It's a hoax..... ALWAYS check before you delete ANY files from your computer.....
These jerks count on you being afraid, naieve, or stupid enough to believe this crap and just go ahead and delete things.....
You can really screw up your computer if you do this stuff without knowing what's true or not.....
