After working through the Easter weekend, our expert at Maxcom Technology managed fully to recover Nicole's computer from the SMART Hard Disk Drive virus she picked up on 4 April (see the last blog). Not only that, but all the emails sent to her since 4 April have been backed up on our server and are now available to her. There are 100 emails, which she now has to handle, please give her a bit of slack!
For information, I talked with our main IT group, they say that the SMART virus is rampant, there is currently no anti-virus software that can protect you from it if you happen to access an infected web site. They say that in half the cases they have handled they have had to reformat the disk with loss of anything that wasn't backed up! So beware, internet shoppers!
