Protect Yourself: Computer Viruses

Viruses, Trojan horses & worms: They are human-made
software programs created specifically to wreak havoc on personal
computers and networks. The chance of contracting one of these
computer viruses over the Internet has increased dramatically. In fact,
unless you run anti-virus software, your computer will almost certainly
become infected. Typically, you get a virus by opening infected e-mail
attachments.

Some viruses are relatively harmless to individuals. They just

attach themselves to outgoing messages or e-mail themselves to all the
contacts listed in your address book. The sudden flood of e-mail
overwhelms mail servers, causing the system to crash.

In 1988 a student at Cornell University sent out a virus by

accident, infecting more than 6,000 computers in minutes, nearly
bringing the Internet to its knees. More recently, the "I Love You" virus
caused over $1 billion in lost productivity as its crippled e-mail systems
worldwide. Last year alone, 10,000 new viruses, Trojan horses, and
worms were unleashed.
