“The ABC’s of Computer Security and Virus Protection,” will be the focus at Friday’s luncheon hosted by the Charleston Area Chamber of Commerce.

Mike Miller of Viscon Networking Innovations will present up-to-date information and advice on protecting oneself from malicious viruses like “Snow White and the Seven Dwarves,” the “Phantom Menace,” “I Love You,” “Happy99,” “Teletubby” and “Pretty Park.” The luncheon will also cover protection from hackers, Trojan horses, worms and other harmful virtual intruders.

Computer security is an important issue to anyone who owns a computer, especially internet users. Internet users are much more vulnerable to insidious attacks from the outside.

The luncheon will be at the Best Western Worthington Inn from noon to 1:15 p.m. The cost of the luncheon is $10 for the Chamber members and $15 for non-members, payable at the door.

Any member of the community is welcome to attend. Preregistration is required.
