FYI ~
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 from your system, it
can be restored by installing updated version of Microsft Virtual
Machine or Internet Explorer. Please note that some e-mail worms (for
example, Magistr) might sometimes send an infected JDBGMGR.EXE in an
e-mail attachment, but this infection is caused by Magistr not JDBGMGR
by itself. So the bottom line is, if you receive JDBGMGR.EXE or any
other windows component by email, it is most probably a file infected
by a virus. If you find JDBGMGR.EXE from your system directory, it is
most probably a clean file.
