Consider this: Before students attend school they must be immunized against several diseases that they could otherwise contract from other students. Likewise, before computers are connected to a network they must be immunized against computer viruses, spyware, and adware that can infect other computers.<\/p>\n

University\u00a0Computers<\/h3>\n

Desktop computers are configured by the Information Technology Services (ITS) Department to be protected against computer viruses, spyware, and adware. It\u2019s strongly advised to avoid downloading inoffensive looking programs from the internet. Many of these programs are bundled with computer viruses, spyware, and\/or malware. Please be aware that if your computer becomes infected, ITS will have to quarantine and service the desktop computer. You may be left with out a computer for a few days as we attempt to disinfect it.<\/p>\n

Laptops are also configured by the ITS department to be protected against computer viruses, spyware, and adware. Most of our laptops are configured to automatically download and install Microsoft updates<\/a> and Antivirus updates,\u00a0however some\u00a0are not. In such case, users are vested with the responsibility to maintain their laptop up-to-date.<\/p>\n
