Antivirus Info

[Julie Rickard <julierickard@earthlink.net>]

Hi,

I work at WSU as a computer technician and deal with viruses often.  Any 
antivirus software will work to detect a virus AS LONG AS it is UP TO 
DATE.  Meaning, that you must make sure that you are not cancelling the 
program when it is scheduled to update.  Make sure that it is scheduled to 
do updates automatically when connected to the internet.  This must be done 
manually by the user.  Usually virus software has a one year subscription 
for updates and after that you must buy the newest version.  I highly 
recommend having an antivirus software program on all computers connected 
to the internet.  I personally like Norton Antivirus as their website has 
information on cleaning specific viruses from infected computers.  Though 
most sites should.

Good luck!
