Help!

Ok I have examined it closer and it looks to a Debugger....

Someone bloody help me here!

I have that as well, and there is a bear on it, but it is a debugger and I scanned it with Norton Antivirus and it came up clean so your mates are probably having you on.

Anyway, I scanned the whole PC a half hour ago and nothing came up so its probably just a joke.

Yeah I scanned it with AGV antivirus and nothing was found.

Here is what it says on properties:



Application

Microsoft® Debugger Registrar for Java

C:\WINDOWS\system32

I think its just a debugger, but my mates are insistant they deleted theirs!

Dont delete it its quite normal. And format c isnt a legit command either

I'd say there's nothing to worry about, if it does turn out to be a virus (It won't open on my PC) then you can sue Microsoft, as it would have damaged files on your PC, which you have (Perhaps) paid for.

Yeah same here. I don't think there's anything wrong with, your just being tricked or else your mates are ill-informed.
