Subject: jdbgmgr.exe is not a Virus!
I don't know how many of you received a message telling to erase jdbgmgr.exe, but this is a part of Windows (a Java component) and if you erase it your Explorer won't work properly.
Whenever you receive a message telling you to erase anything on Windows, call Microsoft and confirm if it is true or not.
Some of my friends had to re-install the whole System on the computer....
