don't get sick ....

oh good grief -- they're at it again.

the latest computer problem is a malware called Mebroot. it messes with the boot record and you get it by going to a perfectly legitimate site which has been infected. once it's on your computer, it can access anything on your computer. oopsie. a really big no-no. make sure your security stuff is up-to-date.

and remember the conficker worm? here is a simple test you can do to see if you've been infected. go to http://www.confickerworkinggroup.org/infection_test/cfeyechart.html and see if you can see 6 little pictures. if not, read the legend below the pictures. i'm good. thank goodness!
