There is a virus hoax being email
throughout the Health Sciences Center.
The email has the subject line of
"Virus Check" and encourages you to delete
the file "jdbgm" or
"jdbgmgr.exe". This is a legitimate file and you should
not delete it. There
are a number of variations of this hoax, but they all
ask you to delete the
file jdbgmgr.exe.
The file "jdbgmgr.exe" is used by the "Microsoft
Debugger for Java" and in
most cases is only needed by software developers.
If you have already
deleted the file it is unlikely that you need it and no
further action is
necessary. If you need to reinstall the file detailed
instructions are
available at:
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;Q322993
..
If you need assistance please contact your computer support
professional or the
helpdesk at 587-6000.
