THAT WARNING IS A HOAX - DO NOT DELETE THE JBDGMGR.EXE FILE!!!

Puntz,

Unfortunately you have been the subject of a hoax virus alert - the JBDGMGR.EXE file is a component of the Microsoft De************ Registrar for Java - if you delete it and you do Java development on your machine you may have problems.

There is a document on the Microsoft Web site that explains the hoax and the consequences of deleting the file:

http://support.microsoft.com/defaul...b;en-us;Q322993

If you ever receive an email advising you to delete files, particularly from the WindowsSystem folder on your PC you should generally check out the validity of the email carefully - 99% of them are hoaxes. Luckily this one is asking you to delete a fairly unimportant file but there have been many where if you delete the file(s) suggested in the email your PC will no longer boot and you have to reinstall Windows from scratch.

There is more info on virus hoaxes at the McAfee site:
