It is a Microsoft® Debugger Registrar for Javaand is CRITICAL for certain Java applications. It is put there by Microsoft and is safe. Remember the older spoof where folks who followed it lost the ability to have filenames longer than 8 charactors. This is nothing more than a spoof to annoy tons of people. |
In reply to Message (448) What the hell?
By leonmoomin - leonmoomin@madasafish.com Fri 11/10/02 07:59:03 GMT I received an e-mail with the following text, which I read and followed, I think I have been conned? What will be the result of my removal of the mentioned file? If it is really bad, could someone please send me the file back so I can replace it. God damn it!!! This is a copy of the text of the e-mail I received. Sorry everyone, but someone sent me an email that infects the address book, so I am sending you the information on how to get rid of it. Here's what to do: My address book has been infected with a virus, and as a result, so has yours. HOWEVER - it is very simple to remove - but you must do it - AND notify everyone in your address book. The virus is called jdbgmgr.exe. It cannot be detected by Norton or McAfee anti-virus programs. It SUPPOSEDLY sits dormant for 14 days before damaging the system. It is sent automatically by messenger and by the address book, whether or not you send e-mails. To Get Rid of It: 1. Go to Start, then Find or Search. 2. In Files/Folders write the name jdbgmgr.exe 3. Be sure to search your "C" drive 4. Click Find or Search 5. The virus has a teddy bear logo with the name jdbgmgr.exe - DO NOT OPEN! 6. Right click and delete it. 7. Go to the recycle bin and delete it there also. IF YOU FIND THE VIRUS, YOU MUST CONTACT EVERY ONE IN YOUR ADDRESS BOOK. Bloody Hell! I hate the tossers who create these bloody things! leonmoomin
