Deleting an application (.CAB) with a potential virus

Guest

I received an e-mail from a friend that said that my computer has this potential virus. And after searching my computer for the file "jdbgmgr" I found that I have this virus. So naturally I tried to delete it, but it is a Windows application and it will not let me delete it. After I highlighted it, it only lets me: Copy, extract, and open. I do not want to do any of them for it will still be on my computer. How do I delete this application? Extracting to my desktop then deleting it will not help. PLEASE I NEED HELP!

also, to get to it, you go to the C drive, then WIndows, Options, Cabs, then finally to Win98_45. its full name is C:\WINDOWS\OPTIONS\CABS\WIN98_45.CAB

A dose of skepticism would do you some good.

Stop trying to delete it.

the mail that you received about the virus is a hoax.
