Hi everyone,
       I'm getting warnings that the file jdbgmgr.exe which shows up  under
properties as a java debugger file (create date 1999) is actually a virus
which will shut down your  machines in 14 days. The warning states that it
copies your address book and sends itself out. 
       Does anyone have info on this? Is this a hoax?

Thanks.
