Dear VIRUS-L readers, I can't claim to be a virus expert, but I am trying to learn as much as possible about virus action and prevention. As the only faculty member at Hampshire College who teaches assembly language programming and computer architecture I am the best candidate to become a local semi-expert. I am currently planning a presentation for faculty, staff, and students on the virus problem. I will concentrate on techniques to prevent virus infection and to recognize and to recover if prevention fails, but I will also, as time allows, say a little about the history of the problem and the mechanisms of PC viruses with which I am familiar. In the interest of avoiding duplication of effort I would be grateful if any readers of VIRUS-L could send me any materials they may have prepared for similar presentations, or pointers to available documents that they feel should be collected for a local reference collection on the subject. I will prepare some materials myself to hand out to those present, and I will be happy to share these, and anything I receive from others, with any VIRUS-L readers who want them. Thank you, Albert S.
