Unfortunately, I caught this virus from an email.. Directions for removing it are below:
To everyone in my address book:
I just found out I received a virus that automatically is passed through
e-mail address books. I found it in my C: drive.
Since you are in my address book, you will probably find it in your computer too.
The virus called jdbe.exe is not detected by Norton or McAfee 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
e-mail to your contacts.
Here is how to check for the virus and how to get rid of it.
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 your C drive (this is where 1 found it) and all the sub-folders and other drives you may have
4. Click "find now"
5. The virus has a teddy bear icon! with the name jdbgmgr.exe. DO NOT OPEN IT!
6. Go to Edit (on the menu bar) and choose "select all" to highlight thefile without opening it.
7. Now go to the File (on the menu bar) and select delete. The virus 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:
1. Open a new e-mail 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 e-mail.
