Virus in address book-hoax or not

[S Jones]

I received an email telling me to search for a a potential
virus named "jdbgmgr.exe" that cannot be detected by my
antivirus software, I did and this application was found,
when I looked at the properties it said "Microsoft®
Debugger Registrar for Java". Can anyone tell me if this
is a real virus or is it a hoax?

It's a hoax and an old one at that. Whenever you get a virus warning
look it up for yourself at www.symantec.com

Almost EVERY email of a virus warning I have ever seen has been a hoax.
