    2. Robert Good
    3. Folks: I am sorry to say someone sent me a virus that I did discover on my C. drive. My address book was infected with the virus and as a result so is yours because your address was in my address book. The virus is called jdbgmgr.exe. I am told it cannot be detected by Norton or McAfee anti virus programs. It sits quietly for 14 days before damaging you system. It is sent automatically by messenger and by the address book whether or not you send e. mails. I followed the person's instructions that sent the notice to me and did find the file and deleted it. l. Go to start, the Find or Search 2. In Files/Folders write the name jdbgmgr.exe 3. Be sure to search in the C. drive 4. Click Find or Search 5. The virus has a teddy bear logo with the name jdbgmgr.exe DO NOT OPEN 6. Right Click and delete it Go to the recycle bin and delete it there also. If you find the virus you must contact everyone in your address book, as their computers will also be infected. I am sorry to add this problem to your list of things to take care of.
