Apologies in advance, this is a very dull one and not at all
esoteric....
The teddy bear virus isn't a virus at all, it's a hoax virus that's been
around for more than a year. Check it out at Symantec's website
http://securityresponse.symantec.com/avcenter/venc/data/jdbgmgr.exe.file
.hoax.html and don't delete the teddy bear (jdbgmgr.exe) file which is a
normal file within the windoze operating system. There are however a
couple of virus threats which do target this file, details on Symantec's
page. The file has a great name though...its a 'de-bugger manager'
file.... I wonder if there is a 'bugger manger' file too?
Just in case anyone else translates Kees's e-mail...
Bill.
