RE: [Philmont]: Virus

That file with the Teddy Bear icon is not a virus. It is a legitimate file
that comes with Windows. The message you received, and sent, is a hoax. If
you have already removed the file don't worry. It is not a critical file
and you will never know it is gone unless you are a Java programmer.

Subject: [Philmont]: Virus

Sorry to have to send this message, but someone passed along a virus to my
address book. It's easy to find and delete. this is the instructions. Virus
not detectable by Norton or McAfee? It is sent automatically by MSN
Messenger. It sits for two weeks before doing any damage. To check and
delete:
1.Go to Start, then click your "find" or "search" option
2.in the folder option, type the name "jdbgm
3.Be sure to search "C" drive and all subfolders.
4.click "find now"
5.Virus has a teddy bear icon! name jdbgmgr.exe. DON"T OPEN! 6.Go to Edit
(menu bar) and choose "select all" to highlight the file without opening
it. 7. Now go to the File (on menu bar) and select delete. The virus will
then go to the recyle 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 book. To do
this: 1.Open a new email message. 2.Click the icon address book (contacts)
next to "To" 3.Highlight every name and add to "BCC" 4.Copy this message and
paste to email. Again my apologies. Ed Reynolds
