Hi,

Does anyone know of a virus named this way? I received a mail saying to delete this \"jdbgmgr.exe\" virus from my computer. I have an icon with a cute little bear and this file on my hard disk. Shall I erase it or is it just a hoax?

Thanks for your comments.

This is a Hoax - not a virus Sep 10, 2002

It belongs to the Windows operating system, and should not in any way be deleted.



See here:

So do not delete this file!



Best

Jerzy
