Protect yourself against computer viruses

Computer viruses are so much a part of the Internet mystique that many people are either wildly paranoid about them or else so casual that they think they're no big deal. On the one hand, viruses prove how vulnerable computer systems can be. A well-coded virus can have a pretty astounding effect on the Internet. On the other hand, they show us that, no matter how sophisticated and interconnected human beings have become, there are still weirdos out there who get their kicks from harming others. For example, the Melissa virus, which became a global phenomenon in March of 1999, was so pervasive that a number of large companies, including Microsoft, had to completely turn off their e-mail systems until the virus could be dealt with. Widespread distribution of The ILOVEYOU virus in 2000 produced similar results. That's pretty impressive considering both the Melissa and ILOVEYOU viruses are deceptively simple pieces of code.

While there are many real computer viruses circulating about the Internet, there are also quite a lot of hoaxes. If someone sends you email telling you about a virus, check here first to make sure it's not a hoax. Above all, make sure you're protected. Norton Antivirus and Antivirus Pro are on sale right now. It's cheap protection considering the potential harm a virus can do to your computer. Call us to to reserve one for you, or just come by and pick one up.
