Barry Madore MAP for Nonprofits
========================================================== Is your virus protection up-to-date? Is you subscription for new virus definitions paid-up? Is your virus protection software automatically checking for new virus definitions at least weekly?
If the answer to any of these questions is either "No" or "I don't know," you will want to sign up for MAP's Virus protection day. It will be worth your peace of mind.
Free (Almost) Virus Protection
On Friday, October 10, MAP for Nonprofits will install free up-to-date computer virus protection software at 50 Twin Cities nonprofit organizations, with the help of volunteer computer professionals.
Organizations need to sign up now for this service. The registration deadline is this Friday, September 19. Register on MAP's website at www.mapfornonprofits.org or call MAP at (651) 647-1216 for a registration form. Generous support from ADC and Symantec makes it possible for MAP to offer this special service at a cost of $15. Sign-up is limited to the first 50 eligible organizations.
The event will address a serious issue for nonprofit organizations. Organizations can get computer viruses from email messages, from downloads from the Internet, from documents sent by a co-worker and from computer diskettes. They can cause serious damage to data and software and erase hard drives. Lack of virus protection exposes organizations to a serious risk of lost data, including client and financial records.
If you have any questions, call or email Sheldon Mains at 651/632-7233 or [EMAIL PROTECTED]
