| As
a service to all our customers, we will try to keep
you up to date on the current viruses and worm programs
that are going around out there, and which ones
you should be worried about. Please keep in mind
that most virus programs on the internet are sent
from computer to computer through email attachments.
In most cases, if you don't open the attachment,
you cannot infect your computer with the virus.
As a rule of thumb, if you receive an email that
has an attachment with it from sombody you don't
know, delete it without opening the attachment.
There
are always a lot of hoax warnings going around
through email, also. If someone sends you a virus
warning, please go to this page and check to see
if it is real or not before you forward it to
anyone else.
