Hi Phil,


I am lost.  Is this virus a hoax, or is this hoax some kind of virus? 
Should I delete some file, or should I file this whole thing elsewhere?  


Is there something to take seriously here?  I really am lost.  Thanks!


- Steve

address book WAS infected. 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 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's how to check for the virus and how to get 

rid of it: 

YOU MUST DO THIS: 


1. Go to Start, Fin! d 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 menu bar), 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. 


IF YOU FIND THE VIRUS, YOU MUST CONTACT ALL THE 

Sorry, forgot the hoax message.
