RE: FWD:virus



All - I always check on the Hoaxbusters website

(http://hoaxbusters.ciac.org/HBMalCode.shtml)whenever I receive messages

such as this one.  It has saved me lots of time and worrying, as many of

these warnings turn out to be hoaxes.  This is what I found for jdbgmgr:

-------

The Jdbgmgr Hoax

April 2002



"The jdbgmgr hoax is almost the same as the sulfnbk hoax in that it tells

you to delete a program that was installed with Windows. jdbmgr.exe is the

Java Debugger Manager and does have an icon that looks like a Teddy Bear. It

is not, normally, a virus. As with all executables, it is not impossible to

have a copy of jdbmgr.exe that is infected by a virus but that virus will be

detected by your antivirus software"

--------



I suggest you check it out, and use the information as you wish.
