Hi,

The hoax I decided to focus on is the "teddy bear hoax."   This is a false 
e-mail that tells you that your computer is infected with a virus and to delete 
a particular file,  jdbgmgr.exe, immediately.  This file is on everyone's PC, 
and the icon for it is a cute little teddy bear.  When people get this message 
and see they have the file, they send the message to all of their friends, and 
thus, spread the hoax to fool more people.
