Virus Information: Email Viruses are unfortunately a part of computing life; however there are steps that we can take to make sure that our computers do not become infected. Most viruses are spread through email and are now often spoofing the sender information so they appear as if they are coming from valid addresses of coworkers, associates, and friends. It is not enough anymore just to disregard emails from people you don't know, you also have to be aware of strange characteristics from valid email addresses. For example, if there are odd spelling mistakes, or strange greetings and endings, contact the sender and verify the email is valid. Also, if the attachment requests a password, be wary. There is a string of viruses circulating that send a zip file that is password protected. Use caution and always call the HelpDesk if you are unsure before downloading or opening an attachment.

managing viruses at: It is also important to make sure that you have the EPO agent installed and running on your campus computer. The EPO agent automatically updates your campus computer with the latest virus definitions, preventing infection. To determine if you have EPO installed, look at the system tray by your clock in the lower right corner of your desktop. You should see an icon that looks like a yellow circle with a man running through it. When you move your mouse over the icon, a label will pop up and it should say 'ePolicy Orchestrator Agent'.
If you do not
have the EPO agent running, you should install it through SAL.
