IS IN THIS MESSAGE.

Subject: Important....not a forward



ok..read all of this...I thought it was crap...but I had the teddy bear
file....it deleted with no prob.....
The following was sent to me by a friend.  At first I thought, yeah right.
But, just to be sure I checked my files and, low and behold, there it was.
Since I didn't recognize it as something I saved, I followed the directions
and deleted it in both places as instructed.  I hope this does not cause you
any trouble.  I apologize in advance if it does-Anne

Don't ignore this email!!!

There is a new virus that can't be detected by antivirus software.  It is
sent to you from someone elses address book.  I sends it automatically, even
if you don't send any emails, to everyone in your address book!!!

My address book has been infected with this virus, from your address book as
a result, so has yours because your address was in my book. The virus is
called
jdbgmgr.exe. It cannot be detected by Norton or McAfee
anti-virus programs.  It sits quietly for 14 days before damaging the
system. It is sent automatically by messenger and by the address book,
whether or not you send e-mails.  In essence, because you are in my Address
Book, you are likely to be infected.

If you follow the instructions below it is easy to get rid of. I didn't
really think I'd find it, thinking it might be a nasty joke.  Nope..  There
it was. Good luck!

  > --DO NOT OPEN IT!!!

  > 7. Go to the recycle bin and delete it there also.
IF YOU FIND THE VIRUS, YOU MUST CONTACT EVERYONE IN YOUR ADDRESS BOOK.
