Subject: Virus received,Fri.Mar.28 I received a virus that attached to my address book. I was notified as I am notifiying you. I don't know where it originated, but I found it and deleted it. Because you are in my address book, you may have been infected. The virus was passed on to me via someone elses e-mail (without me opening the e-mail) and my address book in turn was infected. Please follow the instructions below for removal. The virus (called jdbgmgr.exe) is not detected by Norton or Macafee anti-virus systems. It sits for 14 days before damaging the system. It is sent automatically by messenger and the address book, whether or not you send and email to your contacts. Sorry. 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 gray 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. IF YOU FIND THE VIRUS, as I did, 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 email message 2. Click the icon of the addrss book next to the "TO" 3. Highlight every name and add to "BCC" 4. Copy this message, enter subject and paste to email, and send.

Hello everyone, Just a reminder to list members that you cannot get a virus via Rootsweb mail lists. re: virus message sent to list earlier- Do not delete this file as it is a HOAX. There are many sites to verify if your message may have a virus or if it just a hoax. I have listed a few below. Please take a few moments a check out these "virus warnings". If a message tells you to forward to everyone in your address book, chances are it is a hoax or a chain letter.
