[FADCA] VIRUS PROTECTION

[n4xeo]

Hi All

I just wanted to send this message out to the list to again let you know 
how IMPORTANT it is to keep your virus software up to date. I have been 
working on all of my network computers since Wendsday because we got TWO 
viruses that went undetected. Barbara does a update EVERY morning first 
thing before she downloads any mail and she did the same thing on this day. 
There are 2 VERY NASTY viruses that are going around right now. I don't 
remember the name of them(even though I should) but you can see them and 
what they do if you go to the Symatec web page www.symantec.com and just 
look at the 2 latest viruses that are out.

We got the viruses even though the system WAS updated!!

It looks like we were one of the FIRST to get them as we got them a day or 
two before the fix.

I CAN'T STRESS HOW IMPORTANT IT IS TO KEEP YOUR SOFTWARE UP TO DATE!!

I wound up with 3 computers that it was just easier to format and reinstall 
everything on them after getting them cleaned up. I was able to save all of 
my data I thing so that was a help.

Well enough for now and hope to see a bunch of you on the 4th in 
Tallahassee for the digital meeting.

Yes Bud the winlink software is gone. :-(((
