[tigger_gal]

I didn't know where to post this and find this importasnt to all of us....
I recievd and email that stated that there address book contained a virus, now mine did too because my address was in there book..
IT IT IS NOT A VIRUS IT IS PART OF MICROSOFT WINDOWS AND YOUR OPERATING SYSTEM
the supposed virus is called jdbgmgr.exe with a teddybear logo.... THIS IS A DEBUGGER DESIGNED TO KEEP HACKERS OUT OF YOU PC.. if you delete it your pc and email is open to hackers that know how to acess your computer...
MY ex husband and my neighbor are very good pc repair men they fix and rebuild pc's, I was luckey enough to have them to call regaurding this and they both told me that it is in there pc too it is from microsoft, and part of the operating system, and it is not a virus, my neighbor came over her and checked out my pc...
I just wanted you all to beware of this scam..

Thanks Brat, it is a hoax and along with many other hoaxes you can find info on it at
http://www.symantec.com/avcenter/hoax.html. I would suggest that you never download an .exe file and that you should always have virus protection of some kind running.
