Virus FAQ
VIRUSES
Viruses are a big thing in our technology rich world. Anything
that has the potential to disrupt the normal flow of
information is a threat.
What is a virus?
A virus is a program that replicates itself. That is, a file
that can create another copy of itself without any assistance.
"So what's the big deal?"
Well, often, a virus does not only copy itself, but changes
your system in some way. Some viruses delete files, some simply
disable your printers, some just hide in the background and
cause problems with certain programs.
"What can I do about it?"
There are a number of programs available that make it their business
to keep your computer virus free. SINCE Computers recommends using
AVG Internet Security. This is one of the most popular virus scanners.
"But what if a new virus is created after I buy AVG Internet
Security?"
AVG Internet Security also includes access to a web site where
you can download the latest virus definitions. This means that you
can quickly and easily keep your virus software up-to-date.
"How do I know if there is a new virus?"
Most viruses are found fairly quickly with the help of program
such as AVG Internet Security. Most larger anti-virus companies
have research labs dedicated to finding the new viruses and
finding a way to clean them off your system.
