I was dismayed to find that my account had been affected by whatever it is that
is on the Athena stations. I exectued the three commands given at the login
prompt.
I would like to know more about this virus thing. Should I be concerned about
the files in my directory? What did I do to become affected, and how can I
avoid this in the future?
Thanks,
Stephen Ho
