**** Listowner message please read ****

This is a warning about a virus hoax. I am posting the warning to the list
because it has been reported via another list and because I have been sent
the hoax myself. Any replies to me privately please, and not to the list.

The hoax urges you to delete a file which is actually the "Microsoft
Debugger Registrar for Java". Although it is possible for the file to be
infected by a virus, it is the subject of the hoax.

The wording of the hoax may vary, but it will always refer to a file called
JDBGMGR.EXE

Some versions of the hoax misreport the name of this file as JDBMGR.EXE or
JBDGMGR.EXE. More details at:

Please DO NOT to pass on warnings of this kind, as the continued
re-forwarding of
these hoaxes simply wastes time and email bandwidth - and makes your
friendly listowner cross!

Please make sure that your P C by upgrading your Virus Protection
