Actually, it's not a virus. jdbgmgr is the Java Debugging Manager used by
your web browser. It's not important unless you want to debug java errors
you run into, but it is supposed to be there. There's a Microsoft web page
somewhere that explains how to put jdbgmgr back, but I don't recall it being
easy. Simply copying the file from another similar computer may work but I
haven't tried it.

Sorry but unfortunately a virus has been passed on to me by a friend.

Since you are in my address book,

There is a good chance you will find it in your computer too.

The virus (called jdbgmgr.exe) is not detected by Norton or McAfee antivirus
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-mail to your contacts.

Here`s how to check for the virus and how to get rid of it:

1. Go to start, find or search option.

2. In the file folder option, type the name jdbgmgr.exe

3. Be sure you search your c: drive and all subfolders and any other drives
you may have.

4. click "find now"

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) and 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. 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.

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" (which means blind copy)

d. Copy this message and paste to e-mail
