Thanks for the heads up Und3ertak3r.
Looks like Symantec got the jump on everyone this time- I don't see any info on this on any of the other vendor sites at this time.
Is it just me, or is anyone else getting tired of just getting new variants of the same three or four viruses- mydoom, bagle, netsky, sober, bugbear. Not that I am looking for a huge new outbreak or anything that will have me working 20 hour days to mitigate, but a change of pace would be nice. :-)

There is a convinving hoax going around through email, that directs you to delete jdbgmgr.exe. The reason it's convincing is because the jdbgmgr.exe icon is of a bear.(bugbear). But, it's only a java debugger. (bugbear)
Nothing I have found in regards to online docs have shown this to be harmful except for someone that uses java.
