NOTE: A worm has been found that actually uses the jdbgmgr.exe filename!

NOTE: On 21st of May 2002, a new virus using this hoax was found.
The virus sends messages coming apparently from Symantec corporation
and contains a warning on the JDBGMGR hoax - plus a virus attached
to it.
In April 2002 there appeared a hoax message concerning a new virus
that was reportedly discovered in Windows utility JDBGMGR.EXE. The
jdbgmgr is a standard windows component that is found in every windows
installation, it is used as Java debugger manager in Microsoft Java
runtime engine. The icon of the original JDBGMGR.EXE file for some
reason looks like a teddy bear:
We checked several versions of this utility from Windows
installations and found nothing malicious in them.
Please ignore this hoax or anything similar warning about
jdbgmgr.exe and don't pass it on.
According to Microsoft's website:
" If you follow the e-mail message instructions and delete this file, you do
not have to recover it unless you use Microsoft Visual J++ 1.1 to develop Java
programs on Windows XP, Windows NT 4.0, Windows 98 Second Edition, Windows 98,
or Windows 95."
If you have deleted jdbgmgr.exe, please see Microsoft knowledgebase
article Q322993 for further instructions:
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;Q322993
Please note that some e-mail worms (for example, Magistr)
might sometimes send an infected JDBGMGR.EXE in an e-mail attachment,
but this infection is caused by Magistr not JDBGMGR by itself.
So the bottom line is, if you receive JDBGMGR.EXE or any other windows
component by email, it is most probably a file infected by a virus.
If you find JDBGMGR.EXE from your system directory, it is most
probably a clean file.
A variation of this hoax is known to exist which relates the jdbgmgr.exe
file to the Bugbear worm:
http://www.f-secure.com/v-descs/tanatos.shtml
The Bugbear is a real worm completely unrelated to this file.
Here's the original hoax message:
---Begin Hoax Text -------------------------------------------
I have been informed that the following
file is a virus that may be in you C drive.
Please go into your find file and if this
exists (it has an icon of a bunny) please
do not open. Use your right click button
and just delete, then go into your recycle
folder and delete it from there, do not open.
If this exists, please let everyone know in
your address book.

I found the little bear in my machine because of that I am sending
this message in order for you to find it in your machine. The
procedure is very simple:
The objective of this e-mail is to warn all Hotmail users about a new
virus that is spreading by MSN Messenger. The name of this virus is
jdbgmgr.exe and it is sent automatically by the Messenger and by the
address book too. The virus is not detected by McAfee or Norton and
it stays quiet for 14 days before damaging the system.
The virus can be cleaned before it deletes the files from your system.
In order to eliminate it, it is just necessary to do the following
steps:
1. Go to Start, click "Search"
2.- In the "Files or Folders option" write the name jdbgmgr.exe
3.- Be sure that you are searching in the drive "C"
4.- Click "find now" 5.- If the virus is there (it has a little
bear-like icon with the name of jdbgmgr.exe DO NOT OPEN
IT FOR ANY REASON

1. Go to START and select SEARCH then FOR FILES OR FOLDERS
2. In the window SEARCH FOR FILES OR FOLDERS, type the virus name:
jdbgmgr.exe
3. The window LOOK IN should indicate a search in the hard drive "C"
4. Click on SEARCH NOW
5. If you find the virus (the icon is a teddy bear) DON'T OPEN IT!!!

Today I received an e-mail of a supplier telling me
that he may have sent to me and others one VIRUS
through system. This virus is re-transmitted
automatically to all the addresses stored in our list
of contacts. YOU are one that belong to my mailing
lists!!!
Unhappily it cannot be avoided, therefor the virus is
not detected by Mcfee or Norton and he stays occult
for 14 days before destroying the whole system.
Therefore, follow the steps below to proceed and avoid
losing you data:
1) Click in "START" than in "FIND"
2) In "FIND" click in "Files and Folders"
3) NOW WRITE the name of the virus' file jdbgmgr.exe
on the space "named"
4) Click e checks that it is seeking him/it in the
drive C
5) The virus possesses an icon in small bear form
(grey colour)
6) When you have it listed don't open it in any way,
delete the file immediately
7) Please don't forget to remove the file from
"Recycle Bin" because even in Recycle Bin it can
damage your computer.
8) In case you find this virus in you computer, send
this message to all of the people that are in you
address book before this causes some larger damage.

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 (called jdbgmgr.exe) is not detected by Norton or
McAfee Anti-virus systems. The virus sits quietly for 14 days before
damaging the system. It's sent automatically by the messenger and by
the Address Book, whether or not you sent emails to your contacts. I
have checked, found it and deleted it. Here's how to check for the
virus and how to get rid of it:
DO THIS:
1. Go to start, Find or Search option.
2. In the files/folder option, type the name jdbgmgr.exe
3. Be sure to search your C: drive (& all hard drives)
4. click "find now"
5. the virus has a teddy bear icon with the name jdbgmgr.exe
DO NOT OPEN IT
6. Right click and delete it. It will then go to the Recycle Bin
7. Go to the recycle bin and delete it there as well.
IF YOU FIND THE VIRUS, YOU MUST CONTACT ALL THE PEOPLE IN YOUR ADDRESS
BOOK SO THAT THEY CAN ERADICATE IT IN THEIR OWN ADDRESS BOOKS. SORRY
ABOUT THIS. I'M SURE EVERYONE IN MY ADDRESS BOOK WILL HAVE IT.

A colleague's Address's Book has been infected by a virus and it was
passed on to our computer. Our Address Book in turn has been
infected. The virus (called jdbgmgr.exe) is apparently not detected
by Norton or McAfee anti-virus systems. The virus sits quietly for 14
(fourteen) days before damaging the system. It is sent automatically
by messenger and by Address Book, whether or not you sent emails to
your contacts.
It is quite easy to check for the virus and to get rid of it in a
couple of minutes.
1. Go to Start, Find or Search option.
2. In the files/folders option, write the name jdbgmgr.exe
3. Be sure to search your C: drive and any other drives you may have.
4. Click "find now" 5. The virus has a teddy bear icon with the name
jdbgmgr.exe - DO NOT OPEN IT 6. Go to edit, choose "select all" to
highlight the file without opening it. 7. Now go to file and select
"delete". It will then go to the Recycle Bin. 8. Go to the Recycle
Bin and delete it there as well. 9. Finally, go through the same
procedure searching for a second file: JDBGMGR.EXE-2EF58AEB.pf (Upper
and lower case as shown). This file might have turned up with your
initial search.
IF YOU FIND THIS VIRUS YOU MUST CONTACT ALL THE PEOPLE IN YOUR ADDRESS
BOOK SO THAT THEY IN TURN MAY ERADICATE IT FROM THEIR OWN ADDRESS
BOOKS. APOLOGIES AS WE ARE SURE EVERYONE IN OUR ADDRESS BOOK WILL
HAVE IT.
To do this open a new email message
Click the photo of the address book next to "To"
Click every name and add it to BCC
Copy this message....enter subject....paste to email....send
Or, this is quicker as long as your server doesn't place a limit on
the number of addresses you may use at once. Go to Address Book,
select "ALL"(Ctrl A), go to "send mail" which is in tools or action.

Hallo zusammen,
es gibt einen neuen Virus, der sich über´s Adressbuch verschickt
und der nicht von allen Virenprogrammen erkannt wird. (Ich hatte
ihn auf meiner Festplatte) Der Virus soll 14 Tage nach der Infektion
aufwachen und ist leicht zu entfernen:
1. Start
2. Suchen
3. Im Fenster Dateien/Ordner jdbgmgr.exe eingeben
4. Suche auf C: durchführen lassen (auch in den versteckten
Dateien)
5. Auf keinen Fall öffnen sondern sofort entfernen und auch den
Papierkorb ausleeren.

Wir haben soeben diese wichtige Viruswarnung empfangen; deshalb bitte
unten stehende Viruswarnung unbedingt ernst nehmen.
Wir haben diese EXE-Datei tatsächlich auf unserem Rechner gefunden,
daneben gibt es noch eine Datei mit einem Teddy-Icon eine Ordnerbene
höher:
setdebug.exe.
Wichtig!!!!
An alle, die in unserem Adressbuch stehen!
Heute kam erneut ein Hinweis, dass wieder mal ein Virus kursiert, das
sich automatisch an alle im persönlichen Adressbuch aufgelisteten
E-Mail-Addis versendet.
Die Nachricht hat sich leider bewahrheitet, so dass zu befürchten ist,
dass alle, die in unseren Adressbüchern stehen, nun dieses Virus auf
ihrem C-Laufwerk sitzen haben. Das Virus soll nach 14 Tagen aktiv
werden und zerstört dann das Betriebssystem. Man kann es aber schnell
finden und eleminieren:
1. Auf "Start" klicken und dann auf "Suchen" klicken.
2. In "Suchen" auf "Dateien/Ordner" klicken und den Datei-Namen des
Virus' eingeben:
jdbgmgr.exe
(Achtung: Es muss Laufwerk C überprüft werden!)
3. Das Virus hat einen grauen Teddybären als Icon. Wenn es tatsächlich
auf Laufwerk C abgespeichert ist, nicht öffnen, sondern sofort löschen.
Das muss dann unbedingt auch im Papierkorb gemacht werden. Wer das
Virus in seinem Computer gefunden hat, bitte sofort alle in seinem
Adressbuch befindlichen Personen informieren.
Bitte nicht darauf verlassen, das das Virus durch einen Virus-Scan
eliminiert wird. Mein aktuelles Virensuchprogramm hat das Virus nicht
entdeckt.
Von den "Sendern" kam nicht einmal eine Mail in den letzten Tagen, das
Virus verbreitet sich also "Mail-frei". Darum UNBEDINGT Laufwerk C
überprüfen. Wir hoffen mit der unangenehmen Nachricht dennoch geholfen
zu haben.
Viele Grüße
Cläre und Gerd Wilh. Bellersheim

ECHT WICHITG!
Mal wieder versucht ein Virus, sich über die Adressbücher der Leute
auszubreiten. Diesem scheint es tatsächlich zu gelingen und
es ist kein Fake, daher schicke ich die Warnung hier mal an alle aus
meinem Adressbuch:
"Es ist wirklich ein Ernstfall !
Bitte schaut umgehend nach!!!
Das Virus verbreitet sich von Adressbuch zu Adressbuch, also
bitte gleich
nachschauen. Es ist in der Tat von Norton und McAfee (und
AntiVir9x) nicht
auffindbar. Es schlummert etwa 14 Tage auf dem Rechner,
aktiviert sich dann
selbst und löscht sämtliche Daten auf der Festplatte.
Die Anweisung zu seiner Entfernung ist recht einfach:
1. Auf "Start" klicken, dann auf "Suchen", dann auf Dateien/Ordner.
2. In der Suchmaske "jdbgmgr.exe" eintippen - so heisst die Virusdatei
3. Bei "Suchen in" muss die Festplatte drin stehen, in der Regel C:
4. Suche starten.
5. Wenn diese Datei auftaucht (sie hat einen kleinen Teddybär
als Symbol) AUF KEINEN FALL ÖFFNEN!
6. Mit der rechten Maustaste den Dateinamen anklicken, dann
löschen drücken
7. Bei der Rückfrage ob die Anwendung tatsächlich in den Papierkorb
verschoben werden soll, "Ja" drücken.
8. Auf den Desktop gehen und den Papierkorb öffnen.
9. Die Datei "jdbgmgr.exe" im Papierkorb suchen und mit der rechten
Maustaste aus dem Papierkorb entgültig löschen.
Wenn Du/Sie die Datei auf dem Rechner gefunden hast/haben, bitte diese
E-Mail an alle Kontakte im Adressbuch versenden, weil der Virus über
das Adressbuch verbreitet wird. Danke."

Subject: ursäkta, virus!
Hej alla i min adressbok!
Jag blev just varse att ett virus, i form av en teddybjörn, nästlat sig in i
min dator. Tyvärr tar sig denna björn tydligen förbi vanliga virusskydd som
Norton eller McAfee och roar sig sedan med att skicka sina egna virusmejl
till personer i ens adressregister.
Risken finns nu att björnen letat sej till era
adressregister, men var icke alltför bekymrade, den kan lätt kastas ut!
Gör så här:
Gå till Start, och sedan till Sök (Filer/Mappar) i C:, där
du skriver jdbgmgr.exe och - Sök!
Ifall en liten teddybjörn poppar upp följd av texten jdbgmgr.exe så tryck på
högra musknappen och delete-delete-delete. Visa ingen hänsyn! Sedan tömmer
du papperskorgen på samma vis. Därefter kan det vara lämpligt att uppmana
alla dina mejl-kontakter att leta björnar i sina datorer.
Med ursäkter för virusspridningen samt önskan om god
björnjakt,

Hei, et nytt virus er i sirkulasjon, det sprer seg via e-post og blir ikke
oppdaget av virusprogrammer. Dette viruset går visstnok inn i maskinen og
sprer seg via adresseboken uten at du trenger å starte programmet. Viruset
ligger og hviler i 14 dager innen det aktiviseres og sletter innholdet på
harddisken. Det utløses av filene "jdbgmgr.exe" og "sulfnbk.exe".
jeg har funnet begge filene på min maskin (de er slettet nå), og siden du
er i adresseboken min bør du sjekke om du er "infisert".
Det du skal gjøre er følgende:
1.. Trykk på "start", gå til "søk"
2.. Trykk på "etter filer eller mapper", skriv inn "sulfnbk.exe" og
jdbgmgr.exe" (først det ene, så det andre)
3.. Kontroller at du søker på C: eller min datamaskin. Trykk på "søk
nå".
4.. Om du finner viruset, med et svart, stygt ikon som heter sulfnbk.exe,
eller med en liten bamse som heter jdbgmgr.exe: IKKE ÅPNE DET!!
5.. Dersom det dukker opp, høyreklikk på ikonet, gå ned til "slett" og
venstreklikk.
6.. Det opplyses at dette er en programfil o.s.v. og om du vil sende det
til papirkurven. Svar ja.
7.. Gå til papirkurven og fjern viruset manuelt, eller "tøm papirkurv".
8.. Gjenta prosedyren for begge filene.
Dersom et eller begge virusene finnes på din maskin, gi beskjed til alle
som finnes i din adressebok.
