I followed Vickie's advice and found that file on my system. However, I
was alerted when I noticed that it was installed on my computer before I
even bought it. It has a date in January 2001 on it. So I went to the
Microsoft site and found that this warning is a hoax. Check this url.

Oh, it is often so hard to tell a hoax from the real thing isn't it? I
understand.

Hi everyone,
I was directed by another person on my email list to check for this
virus on
my PC. It's called jdbgmgr.exe and it is not detected by Norton or
McAfee
Anti-virus systems. The virus sits quietly for 14 days before damaging
the
system. It's sent automatically by messenger and by the Address Book,
whether or not you send emails to your contacts.
I have checked, found it, and deleted it. Here's how to check for the
virus
and how to get rid of it.
1. Go to START, Find or Search option.
2. In the files/folder option write the name jdbgmgr.exe
3. Be sure to search your C: drive.
4. Click "find now"
5. The virus has a teddy bear icon with the name jdbgmgr.exe

DO NOT OPEN IT

6. Right click on the folder and select delete option. Then it will go
to
the Recycle Bin.
7. Go to the recycle bin and delete it there as well.

If you find the virus, you must contact all the people in your address
book.
I'm sorry about this, I'm sure everyone in my address book will have it.
.. Vicki Biltz
