JDBGMGR.EXE New name. Same old hoax. Last May, the SULFNBK.EXE hoax caused thousands of gullible users to delete a perfectly legitimate system file. Now the same hoax is circulating, this time targeting the equally benign JDBGMGR.EXE. As with the SULFNBK.EXE hoax, it is likely a result of confusion caused by the Magistr virus. While the hoax mail urges users to search for and delete the file if it is found, in reality, JDBGMGR.EXE should be on the system - it is a standard windows component included with Internet Explorer (at least as far back as version 3.02). For those hapless folks who've deleted the file, reinstalling Internet Explorer or downloading an updated version of Microsoft Virtual Machine should solve the problem. The email hoax urging users to delete this necessary file may be preceded with the dire sounding "National Virus Alert". Following is a sample of the hoax: Hi, everybody: I just received a message today from one of my friends in my Address Book. Their Address Book had been infected by a virus and it was passed on to my computer. My Address Book, in turn, has been infected. The virus is called jdbgmgr.exe and it propagates automatically through Messenger and through the address book. The virus is not detected by McAfee or Norton and it stays dormant for 14 days before wipe out the whole system. It can be deleted before it erase your computer files. To delete it, you just have to do the following: 1) Go to Start, click on "Find" 2) At "files or folders" write the name jdbgmgr.exe 3) Be sure to search drive "C" 4) Click on "find now" 5) If you find the virus (the icon is a little bear with the name jdbgmgr.exe) DO NOT OPEN IT FOR ANY REASON 6) Right click on it and delete the file (it will go to the recycle bin) HOAX!!!!!!!!!!!
