My address book was infected. Since you were in my address book, you will probably find it in your computer. The virus [called jdbg.exe] is not detected by Norton or McAffee 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 emails to your contacts. Here is how to check for the virus and how to get rid of it. It only takes a few minutes. Go to start, then click your "find" or "Search" Option In the folder option, type the name: jdbgmgr.exe Be sure to search your C Drive and all the subfolders and any other drives you may have Click "Find Now" 4. The virus has a Teddy Bear icon with the name jdbgmgr.exe DO NOT OPEN IT! 5. Go to edit [on the menu bar] and choose " select all" to highlight the file without opening it. 6. 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 people in your Address Book so that they may eradicate the virus from their own address books. To do this: Open a new e-mail message Click the icon Address Book next to "TO" Highlight every name and add to "BCC" Copy this message and paste into the email This was passed on to me from someone in my address book. I found it in my computer and got rid of it by these directions. Sorry if it was passed on to you Charles Floyd ==== WATERFORD Mailing List ==== ** Visit the Waterford County page at http://community.webtv.net/waterfordroots/waterford **
