I just got sucked into the JDBGMGR hoax. (Fortunately, I did not send it to anyone else.) The warning was from my father and he knows a lot more about computers than I do, so I figured it was for real.

Now here's what I'd like to know, if anyone can tell me. Every time I tried to delete this file, when I went back to see if it was gone, it was back again. And when I tried to reinstall (per the Norton instuctions on what to do if we got snookered), I got a message saying that this file could not be deleted or copied.

So can anyone tell me if that means that I didn't ever succeed in deleting it in the first place, and it's still where it belongs?

Grateful in advance for any answers.
