Synopsis:
This book aims to provide a practical guide for the microcomputer user, showing how to avoid, and if necessary combat, a viral infection. The emphasis of the book is on practical advice and measures which can be immediately implemented by large and small computer users. The author analyzes virus structure, looking at infection paths and common carriers. There is a discussion on side-effects and mutations, with practical suggestions on the prevention of virus infections. Anti-virus weapons, including virus detection products, are discussed, and a step-by-step approach to dealing with virus attack is outlined. The book includes case studies describing the installation and administration of anti-virus measures and special attention is given to PC networks which are potentially a prime means of disseminating viruses on PCs. A list of anti-virus product manufacturers is given.
