Thanks for the concern. Anyway my e-mail account is set only to my conctacts.

I didn&#39;t think it was possible for a Powerpoint presentation to contain anything dangerous anyway?
So I imagined it might be a hoax.

Your only really have to read the first couple of lines to guess it&#39;s a hoax... it reads like any other out there.

Don&#39;t feel too bad, people are still deleting the JDBGMGR.EXE file from their PC&#39;s without looking for information on this. I guess people&#39;s ignorance will be the downfall. People need to start getting clued up on this shit or they&#39;re going to be taken for a ride of their life...

Here&#39;s the link relating to theJDBGMGER file mentioned above.

Just thought I&#39;d add this quote...

Common sense provides the best cure. If you aren't sure, don't forward it. Forget the "just in case" excuse - it's downright dangerous. Unless the warning comes from a known and reputable source, send it to the Recycle Bin and not to your friends and co-workers.

I hate that @^&&#036;@ thing&#33; It may as well be a virus.

Close program... "You cannot close this program". WTF?? why not ?

"It is being debugged."

Ok, close now?

"No, still debugging"

WTF???

END NOW&#33;&#33;&#33;

"debugging"


ARRRRRHHHHGGGGGGG&#33;&#33;&#33;&#33;&#33;&#33;&#33;&#33;

Mr. Blunt
:angry:
he tried to save us
thank him

TheCanuk,

I am very thankful that you posted this "virus" warning. I am very thankful since now I will be more carefull about this "Super Bad Virus" that will mess up my computer. I hope I don&#39;t get this hoax virus.

@Zedaxax

Sorry.


:P

hehe sry for making you feel bad.... wasnt my intention :rolleyes:

I could tell from the first line it was a hoax I mean why would Microsoft confirm a virus and out of all the anti-virus groups only Norton (which should be symantec) confirm it. Also Symantec or any Anti-Virus in general would send a warning espcially one as poorly constructed as that to e-mail. By the way I think PowerPoint can contain virues as it supports Macros.

hey canuck, dont trip, you thought you was doin a service to the community,
nothing wrong with that (well, in extremes it could be a bad thing, but not a
virus notice :P )
i&#39;ll post virus defs every once in a while, but i get em from verified sources
that deal with this stuff on a daily basis, like symantec, from their KB :)
they never send e-mail notifications
and i try to only post real bad asses or p2p bugs

and i NEVER open e-mail from unknown sources, think maybe most people here are up on that

The Symantec site also says its a hoax <_<
