i need to know if jdbgmgr.exe is a viruse or not
Never delete files just because an e-mail says so. First thing is to obtain
a proper virus checker and download the latest definitions for it, then scan
the suspicious file. Also, it won't hurt to go to a website like
http://www.sarc.com and check their encyclopaedia for this.
In this case, you shouldn't delete the file. The e-mail is a well-known
hoax. However, it is possible that this file could be infected by another
virus. Hence, the check above.
To replace the file, follow the instructions below.
