This is a HOAX - DO NOT DELETE you files.

Click on http://www.europe.f-secure.com/hoaxes/jdbgmgr.shtml

to check if a virus is a hoax.

The following is from there web site:

NAME: jdbgmgr.exe virus hoax

ALIAS: Teddy Bear hoax

NOTE: On 21st of May 2002, a new virus using this hoax was found. The virus

sends messages coming apparently from Symantec corporation and contains a

warning on the JDBGMGR hoax - plus a virus attached to it.

In April 2002 there appeared a hoax message concerning a new virus that was

reportedly discovered in Windows utility JDBGMGR.EXE. The jdbgmgr is a

standard windows component that is found in every windows installation, it

is used as Java debugger manager in Microsoft Java runtime engine. We

checked several versions of this utility from Windows installations and

found nothing malicious in them.

Please ignore this hoax or anything similar warning about jdbgmgr.exe and

don't pass it on.

If you have deleted jdbgmgr.exe, please see Microsoft knowledgebase article
