    1. [JORDAN] Teddy Bear Virus is a HOAX
    2. Tom Lusk
    3. Please go to http://vil.mcafee.com/ and type in jdbgmgr.exe to access the McAfee file that describes the hoax and the e-mail which was distributed about it. It also tells how to restore jdbgmgr.exe if it has been deleted. It is a necessary file for Windows. If it doesn't exist, Windows will ask you to install it the next time you boot up. It can be infected by virus, but Teddy Bear Virus is not one of them. There are a number of sites besides McAfee which tell which virus are hoaxes or real. In this case all the teddy bear "virus" does is cause Window users to jump through hoops to reinstall the file you were told to delete. ===== Tom Lusk Aurora OH [email protected] __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
