viruses create chaos


If you have a virus checker, when was the last time you updated it? You’d be surprised at how many people say, “Huh?” You can update these for free and should at least once a week. Newer versions even do it for you. Be wary of opening e-mails with attachments, even from those you know. Scan every one with your virus software first. Keep backups of your hard drive that are three or four days old and constantly rotate them so you will have a virus-free version at all times. Viruses seem to love to attack on Monday, though there is no real pattern. Always update your virus program on Monday, at the very least.
