1USA's Virus Info Center

 


You can print any of these pages and show them to your employer and friends so they understand the seriousness of computer viruses. (May 1998)
   
Viruses attached to emails:

An email can contain any file attachment that may be a virus - or contain a trojan horse embedded virus inside another file.
- usually unknown by the sender. If people knew they were transmitting a virus, then they also know that their computer is infected
!!

If you do not know the person sending you an email,
don't be inquisitive and click on any executable-file attachment (.VBS, EXE, SHS, MS Word DOC or MS Excel file XLS) that comes from an email or a newsgroup article from an untrusted source - it may be your last click unless you have an up-to-date virus scanner installed on your computer with an up-to-date scanner/pattern file.

By up-to-date, I mean a fresh one within a week of the publication date.
Downloading an anti-virus program once and hoping it will keep your system disinfected for the next year is a wrong assumption. You need to manage it and download a new virus detection file
every week.

If your ISP does not offer good antivirus protection, maybe it's time to quit your ISP and
join 1USA - to take advantage of our Anti-Virus-protected Email Servers.

Each virus that we
stop on your behalf (If you are a 1USA Subscriber) can save you an average of $75.00 per hour in repair charges. Our anti-virus Email Server cleans the offending virus before you even see it.

1USA also provides you with Free anti-virus software for your computer!
We're the ONLY ISP that goes the extra mile for its subscribers
!


Hoaxes:
When someone sends you an email saying to "tell all your friends",
check here first - to see if it's a Hoax.
