A virus has been passed on to me by one of my contacts. My address book has in turn been infected. Since you are in my address book, there is a good chance you will find it on your computer too. I followed the directions below and eradicated the virus easily. Sorry for the inconvenience. The virus (called jdbgmgr.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 the address book , whether or not you sent e-mails to your contacts.
