Would YOU care to be known as the person who let loose the "Dogs of War" virus on your base, command, or agency\'s network? This is not career-enhancing. Make sure you have up-to-date virus protection software on your system. Make a habit of scanning your system manually at regular intervals. Viruses are commonly spread through email. Be suspicious of email attachments that end in .exe, or .vbs. If you don’t know the sender, the rule of thumb is NOT to open the email or the attachment. Tens of thousands of Web users "innocently" spread viruses in that manner. Never open an attachment to an email from an unknown sender. Detach attachments from known senders, and run them through a virus scan before opening them. Email is not always from the person in the sender line. Stay informed! Be aware of the latest bugs, viruses, and security alerts.
