Go to the Recycle Bin and delete it there as well - or emply the bin See: http://www.symantec.com/avcenter/venc/data/jdbgmgr.exe.file.hoax.html _Before_ following the above instructions! You'll note that that web page contains much of the same text. jdbgmgr.exe is _not_ a virus, and in fact, is the "Java Debugger Manager", installed by Microsoft. A reminder: never propagate virus warnings under any circumstances! One should always get up to date (and reputable) virus information from an Antiviral authority, such as McAfee or Symantec.
