Getting Nasty Computer Viruses To Bug Off

NEW YORK, April 26 /PRNewswire/ --

NEWS: News You Can Use To Protect Against Costly Computer Virus Attacks

STORY SUMMARY:
Computer virus attacks are up dramatically from twenty-four hundred in
1995 to more than eighty thousand in 2002. It seems that almost every week,
there's a new, threatening virus. In fact, the department of homeland security
recently announced that information and technology security was a top priority
this year.
Experts say there are few things you can do to beat back the bugs. Use
caution when opening e-mail attachments, especially from someone you don't
know. Install antivirus software and keep it up to date. Do not download any
files unless you're absolutely sure they're safe. Finally, if you're in the
market for a new PC, look for one that features enhanced virus protection
capability
Microprocessor manufacturer Advanced Micro Devices offers enhanced virus
protection with its new AMD Athlon(TM) 64 processors for notebook and desktop
PCs. The processor, when combined with the upcoming Windows(R) XP Service Pack
2, is designed to trap certain viruses and not allow them to infect your PC.
