Victor you moron,
before you send out nonsense like this, do a little research! You may have
caused a lot of trouble for a lot of people with your
ignorance!

Symantec
Security Response encourages you to ignore any messages regarding this hoax. It
is harmless and is intended only to cause unwarranted concern.
Type:
Hoax
This is a hoax that, like the SULFNBK.EXE Warning hoax, tries to persuade you to
delete a legitimate Windows file from your computer. The file that the hoax
refers to, Jdbgmgr.exe, is a Java Debugger Manager. It is a Microsoft file that
is installed when you install Windows.
NOTE: Recent version of
this hoax take advantage of the recent outbreak of the W32.bugbear@mm worm, and the fact that the
Jdbgmgr.exe file that is mentioned in the hoax has a bear icon. The actual W32.bugbear@mm worm file is an .exe file and does
not have a bear icon.
The Windows Jdbgmgr.exe file has a teddy
bear icon as described in the hoax:
CAUTION: Jdbgmgr.exe,
like any file, can become infected by a virus. One virus in particular, W32.Efortune.31384@mm, targets this file. Norton
AntiVirus has provided protection against W32.Efortune.31384@mm since May 11,
2001.
NOTE: If you have already deleted the Jdbgmgr.exe file, some
Java applets may not run correctly. This is not a critical system file. The file
version may vary with your operating system and version of Internet Explorer. If
you want to restore the file, read the instructions in the How to restore the
Jdbgmgr.exefile section at the end of this
document.

Subject: VIRUS ALERT!!! I
found it on MINE!
PLEASE READ IMMEDIATELY & ACTION AS APPROPRIATE
A Virus has been passed on to me by a contact. My
address book
has in turn been infected. Since you are
in my address book, there is a
good chance you will
find it in 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 emails to
your
contacts.
Here's how to check for the virus and how to get
rid
of it.
YOU MUST DO THIS
1. Go to Start, Find or
Search option
2. In the file/folders option, type the
name:
jdbgmgr.exe
3. Be sure you search your C: drive and
all
sub-folders and any other drives you may have.
4. Click "find
no! w"
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), choose "select all"
to highlight the file without opening it.
7. Now go to File (on the menu bar) and select delete.
It will
then go to the Recycle Bin.
8. Go to the Recycle Bin and delete it
there as well
IF YOU FIND THE VIRUS, YOU MUST CONTACT ALL THE
PEOPLE
IN YOUR ADDRESS BOOK, SO THEY CAN ERADICATE IT IN
THEIR OWN
ADDRESS BOOKS.
SORRY ABOUT THIS
To do this:-
a) Open
a new e-mail message
b) Click the icon of the address book next to
the "TO"
c) Highlight every name and Add to "BCC"
d) Copy
this message....enter subject.....paste to
e-mail.....send.
Thanks and sorry for the inconvenience
