Virus warnings

Alert ! Memory Sticks
It has come to my attention that a lot of computer virusses is around that affects Memory Sticks / Flash Drives or other Removable storage devices.
Please be extremely careful not to insert these devices into any PC if it can be avoided.
"Infection occurs when a removable storage device or a mapped drive hosting a copy of the virus is accessed and the user agrees to the autorun prompt for execution of the worm/virus."
Please use this equipment responsibly. If in doubt, do not plug it into another PC (Computer).
A big effort is in progress to get the level of protection against virusses on a higher level.
A lot of trouble is experienced in cleaning the PC's before we can install the new version of the AntiVirus program.

Viruses that are creating problems is:
  • Autorun viruses
  • Sality
  • Virut/n!
  • Rimecud
  • etc.
If you receive a virus warning via e-mail and it is not coming from the Administrator or the IT personnel, first check if it is not a hoax.
