I’m out on the reference desk now, fighting a battle against a BUNCH of spyware/virus activity on the left hand reference computer.
Did anyone notice this earlier (virus warnings from Symantec), and did anyone install anything or check a USB key recently? I need to figure out when it started and why it started to help prevent it in the future.
Right now, I’m trying to isolate the source. I would HIGHLY recommend that NO ONE use a USB key for the immediate future in this machine, to avoid spreading the infection. Once I figure out what it is, I’ll let everyone know. If you have info about this, please email me directly.
jason, the computer on the left-hand side of the ref. desk has been on the fritz for a long time. you might check w/ stephen because i believe that he worked on it a while ago to try to solve some of it’s buggyness.
