I haven't taken the time to check this for being a hoax, but I did run a search of my machine and found and deleted a file with a teddy bear icon Bertha Hi all I received this notice from my friend in England. He had this virus and passed it on to me so now I am passing these instructions on to you. This isn't a hoax or a gag. Please do check your computer, I would hate for you computer to crash because of me. Unfortunately a virus has been passed to me through an address book virus which has also infected my address book. As you are in my address book, you will probably find it in your computer too. The virus (called jdbg.exe or jdbgmgr.exe) is not detected by Norton or McAfee Antuvirus. It sits quietly for fourteen days before damaging the system. It is sent automatically by 'messenger' and address book, whether or not you sent email to your contacts. Basically, that means you will pass it on unknowingly, as I did. I was sent this email and am now passing it on to you as to check for the virus and get rid of it. Please do this: It is very simple and took me less than a minute to complete. 1. Go to start then click on Find or Search 2. In the folder option type the name 'jdbgmgr.exe 3. Be sure to search your C drive and the sub folders and any other drives you may have. 4. Click 'Find Now' or 'Search' 5. The virus has teddy bear icon and the name 'jdbgmgr.exe'. DO NOT OPEN IT! 6. Go the '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'. that will send the virus to the recycle bin where it can be permanently deleted. 8. If you find the virus, you must contact all the people in your address book so that they may eradicate the virus from their own address books. To do this 1. Open a new email message 2. Click on the 'address book' icon next to 'To' 3. Highlight every name and add to 'BCC' 4. Copy this message and paste to email. This will affect everyone in your address book so send it to everyone.
