Hello ...
This is a hoax. It is a legitimate Windows program. Please go here:

http://hoaxbusters.ciac.org/HBMalCode.shtml#jdbgmgr

Click on >The Jdbgmgr Hoax < and read about it.

You might have received a similar e-mail urging you to remove SULFNBK.EXE which is also a
legitimate Windows program.

You might want to bookmark this page:

It lists many of the scams and hoaxes.

Good luck,
clemi
