What's The
Deal With Computer Viruses
The
Big Computer Virus Hoax
It seems like someone on our staff receives e-mail every week, warning
of the next big virus. The e-mail always warns you that if you receive
an e-mail infected with this virus, your computer will virtually be attacked
and turn into a machine that will seek and destroy! This scenario is not
possible and is usually 99.9% of the time a hoax, or a misinterpretation
on someone's part.
If you are warned about a virus and want to verify if it is real or not,
you can visit one of the many Web sites that keep track of and research
computer viruses. Both Norton and McAfee are among companies that have
very informative sites on this topic.
