Yes, more about viruses, but today I am not talking about Covid-19
Scanning my computer drives for viruses is something that is required frequently. A nagging pop-up screen reminded me of this fact yesterday.
Not wanting my machine to be hacked, hijacked, or held hostage, I opened the program and hit ‘scan’. Immediately the software began to analyze my computer for harmful code.
Back in the day of floppy disks, my machine was infected. I was fortunate then. Most of my work-product was stored on these things. But it took a computer technician a few days and more than a few dollars to repair my work-station. I am exceedingly careful now, especially since the problem is more prevalent and more destructive than ever.
