High risk viral areas are: Laser Typesetting Bureaus University Computing Centers Any High Traffic, Public Use Computers When using any Mac that fits in these areas, be sure to check your disks when coming back. When using a laser typesetter, I will copy the files onto a floppy, and then erase the floppy when I return. -- part contents for background part 16 ----- text ----- More... -- part contents for card part 2 ----- text ----- Many Laser Typesetting Shops demonstrate a "Gee, what can we do" type attitude towards viruses and as a result are CONSTANTLY infected. I have been in three of these places in the last three months and all three were infected. It burns me because there ARE THINGS YOU CAN DO TO PROTECT PUBLIC USE MACHINES. Do us all a favor and browbeat these guys if you find an infected machine. If you find an owner that keeps his machines clean and cares about the virus problem, praise him and tell your freinds about his shop. This kind of "gee whiz" apathy on the part of copy shop owners is causing a lot of people grief.
