| A computer virus is a program that explicitly copies itself. This may lead to it spreading from machine to machine and is typically done without the user�s knowledge or permission. Viruses, by definition, add their code to your system in such a way that when the infected part of the system executes, the virus does also. Latest versions of mIRC have kept up with the threat of obtaining viruses. By using mIRC it is more likely that a user would be prone to a worm such as: Virus: W32.Gillich.Mirc virus/worm 1-Oct-2002 Mirc worm terminates anti-virus and firewall processes. http://www.sarc.com/avcenter/venc/data/w32.gillich.mirc.html A very informative page relative to Telstra IRC can be found on Watchdogg's site http://iserv.com.au/ |
