9.5 Golden rules for virus protection

 Create boot disks for your network servers and workstations.

 Always remove the disks from the drive when you finish work. Even disks

without executable programs may contain program code in the boot sector

and therefore carry a boot sector virus.

 Make regular backups of your data.

 Limit the exchange of programs. This applies especially to other networks,

mailboxes, the Internet and friends.

 Scan new programs before installation and then perform a disk scan.

If the program is zipped, a virus will not usually become evident until it

is unzipped and installed.

If other people have access to your computer, you should adhere to the

following rules to protect yourself from viruses.

 Make a test computer available on which you can scan software downloads,

demo versions and suspect data media (disks, CD-Rs, CD-RWs, removable

drives).

 Remove the test computer from the network!
