To everyone in my address book --
I just found out that I received a virus from other people that automatically
is passed on through E-mail books.
Since you are in my address book, you may find it in your computer,too.
The virus called jdbg.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 address book,
whether or not
you sent
E-mail to your contacts
Here is how to check for the virus and how to get rid
of it:
PLEASE DO THIS ASAP.
1. Go to Start, then click your "find" or
"search"
option
2. In the folder option, type the name:jdbgm
3. Be sure to search your C and D Drives and all the
sub folders
that you may have.
4. Click "find n! ow"
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 the File on the menu bar and select
"delete". The
virus
will
then go to the recyclebin.
If you find the virus, you must contact
all of the people
in
your
address book,
so that may eradicate the virus from
their own address
book.
To do! this:
1. Open new E-mail message.
2. Click the icon address book (contacts)
next to "TO"
3. Highlight every name and add to "BCC"
4. Copy this message and paste to E-mail.
Sorry for the problem. Hope this has been a help in
clearing it up.
