Virus hits city computer system

Around 1,600 computers in Springfield are infected with the many types of computer viruses and Springfield officers are working for it to remove or eliminate a computer virus. Emergency 911 systems, police, fire and traffic services not exaggerated by the time, said by director of information systems for the city.
The problem was first in public on Friday, but raised in recent days.

Finally five police car computers which affected by it were removed and replaced.

McAfee Inc. identified the virus as “Virut,” which has been in existence for almost about three years.

How the virus came in the city’s computer system yet not clear. But Coiner said it may have arrived by a pop-up message warning that the computer was infected with a virus and to “click here” to fix the problem and when anybody clicked that button virus would come at your computer.

But With online support help services, you may ensure to have maximum protection against web hackers and malicious software that can steal or destroy your personal information like credit card details or login passwords details.
