Does anyone have a list of different virusus and their know effects on
the computers that they infect? And where can I get the latest version
of SCAN?

I'm asking because I'm new to virusus. I've been in computers a while,
but never in such a virus prone environment like a University.

Any replies would be welcome as I have a very scarce knowledge about
this subject. I.e. I know about stoned and that's about it, I don't
even know what it does apart from saying "Your PC is now stoned!".

Thanks.
