The Internet is an incredible resource, but at the same time
is also an ideal conduit for the spread of computer viruses.
The rate at which new viruses are created continues to grow
daily and over 80,000 currently exist. This means that you must
not only install, but also update your antivirus software regularly
to be protected. If you do not update your definitions regularly,
you will not be protected from viruses!
Bethel has a site license for Mcafee VirusScan, which allows
any current Bethel student to download and install it free of charge.
If you have antivirus installed and wish to
use McAfee VirusScan instead, you
must remove your old virus software first, as using
multiple virus scanners will create problems on your computer.
NOTE: New computers usually come with antivirus
software already installed, but the license usually expires within
6 months at which time the software stops updating. If you think
your
subscription
has expired or are not sure if you have a virus scanner, please
renew your subscription or get a different virus scanner. (such
as McAfee VirusScan).
