AVERT HOAX Notice!!

McAfee AVERT Labs would like to inform you of a new email HOAX.

This email message is just a HOAX. Although, the JDBGMGR.EXE file may =
become infected by a number of valid viruses (most commonly =
W32/Magistr@MM), the details of this HOAX message are not based on =
actual events.

We are advising users who receive the email to delete the message and DO =
NOT pass it on as this is how an email HOAX propagates.

JDBGMGR.EXE is the Microsoft Debugger Registrar for Java.=20
It uses this icon:=20

Below is the actual text from the message that may be received via =
email. There are numerous variations on these messages.=20

  This is a bad one (w 32.k l e z.. g e n @ m m).  If your Norton =
Antivirus does not detect the Klez virus it destroys your Norton =
Antivirus sw and the Microsoft installer and then randomly send it self =
to some of your contacts.  I spent 6 hours last Thurs. removing the =
virus and getting the anti virus re installed and updated.

  The first thing to do is update your AV sw asap.

  If anyone has the virus let me know and I will post the steps I went =
thru to remove and restore the AV sw.

    Just a note on the topic Virus:
    I have been getting some emails with this one as a attachment, w =
32.k l e z.. g e n @ m m
    and k l e z is REAL, as my Norton Anti-Virus has put it in the =
Quarantined file.
    no one on this list should get it, unless you get a the same =
newsletter I do.
    seems that the person who sends out the news letter has this and =
somehow some of the address
    on his list are getting this, so sure is very important that you =
have a Virus checker running at all times=20

      Hi all:

      I just got 4 copies of a message from group member Jerry Weiss. It =
instructed me to look for 'JDBGMGR.EXE' and delete it, claiming that =
'JDBGMGR.EXE' is a virus. Well, the message itself is a virus. =
'JDBGMGR.EXE' is part of Microsofts Java runtime.
