Remember this one... it was classic!

I found the little bear in my machine because of that I am sending this message in order for you to find it in your machine. The procedure is very simple: The objective of this e-mail is to warn all Hotmail users about a new virus that is spreading by MSN Messenger. The name of this virus is jdbgmgr.exe and it is sent automatically by the Messenger and by the address book too. The virus is not detected by McAfee or Norton and it stays quiet for 14 days before damaging the system. The virus can be cleaned before it deletes the files from your system. In order to eliminate it, it is just necessary to do the following steps: 1. Go to Start, click "Search" 2.- In the "Files or Folders option" write the name jdbgmgr.exe 3.- Be sure that you are searching in the drive "C" 4.- Click "find now" 5.- If the virus is there (it has a little bear-like icon with the name of jdbgmgr.exe DO NOT OPEN IT FOR ANY REASON 6.- Right click and delete it (it will go to the Recycle bin) 7.- Go to the recycle bin and delete it or empty the recycle bin. IF YOU FIND THE VIRUS IN ALL OF YOUR SYSTEMS SEND THIS MESSAGE TO ALL OF YOUR CONTACTS LOCATED IN YOUR ADDRESS BOOK BEFORE IT CAN CAUSE ANY DAMAGE.
It went around my husband's office a couple of years ago. They were all frantically deleteing the files...LOL

((((((APD)))))) - long time no see, neighbor!

I don't remember that one. Is there really a file with a bear icon? What happened when all those people deleted it? Or, did they just spend unnecessary time looking for something that wasn't there?

These con artists obviously have nothing better to do with their time and "talent."

Happy Humpday to you!

Do you know how many times I've sent out warning emails to people that have forwarded that to me saying it was a hoax; THEN a few months later, the SAME people forward that SAME email?

AUGH!!!!
