[TechAssist] Re: VIRUS WARNING-PLEASE READ IMMEDIATELY

Here's a site that researches and stores nothing but hoaxes, netlore and
folklore.  It's searchable database can be done right from the top of the
page.  You can search "jdbgmgr.exe" using the search window.  It usually
gives a much more detailed account of the hoax than some virus protection
sites, and covers an vast array of stuff.
