Another Virus Alert!: I March 2001

Having had a virus alert from James Thompson, several more people in Cookham have had viruses, including the MTX virus, which can cause devastation. It gets sent to you from a friend, but is noticeable, as it tends not to have a subject. Also when you open it, there is no text, but just an attachment. This normally has a fairly straightforward name such as Reader Digest. Several end in .pif, but some end in .exe. If you don't have a virus protection consider getting one. One reader of cookham.com purchased McAfee from PC World and discovered it was twenty month's old. This was not until they had picked up a virus. So if you buy a virus scan, ensure that you update it regularly by downloading the regular update files from the internet.

Virus Alert!: 13 January 2001

James Thompson warns us to look out for the Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs hahahaaa 95 hybrid virus. James has been hit twice already. The kak virus still seems to be making the rounds in Cookham and effects the Active X components. Another virulent virus that has been brought to cookham.com's attention and has struck in Cookham is the South Park virus, which displays a picture of South Park. It is easy to get rid of, but also destroys the registries, which are not see easy to get back!!
