Carlow Virus Update Center
11/01/04 To: Carlow Community
The The Office of Information Technology has received several
reports of new versions of the BAGLE virus on campus. There are already 3 new
versions that have manifested themselves over the weekend.
We are asking that ALL members of the campus community perform the following
steps immediately:
1) If you are a student, and do not have virus protection: please purchase and install virus protection immediately. There are a limited number of McAfee Virus Software packages available for purchase at the helpdesk in Antonian Hall. Be careful - if you recently bought a new computer - your trial virus protection may have expired.
2) If you have virus software
- please update your anti-virus dat files immediately. If you have McAfee, you
can do so by downloading the current super-dat file from our web-site:
http://www.it.carlow.edu/updates/index.html
(under the section link entitled "Latest Super-Dat File for McAfee.")
If you have any questions or need help updating your anti-virus software, please contact our helpdesk at x8700.
This information is intended solely for the Carlow University campus
community
Thank you.
