Members were reminded of the following: 1-do not click "remember me"when signing into your E mail 2-do not log off before your E mails have been succesfully sent 3-do not click print more than once, have patience and 4 -do LOG OFF.
Bob Rogers suggested that our security problems might have been caused by someone inserting a flash drive and introducing a Trojan Horse by so doing.
After much discusson, Jean LaVois made a motion and Jeff Neeper seconded it that we take the club computer to the computer store on Camino Seco for updates to Windows 7, clean up, and installing the anti virus Avast. Motion past.
It was noted that Cox does not have an installation charge, or require a contract and is only $17.95 a month for hi speed.
