Abstract
One of the biggest headaches that come along with networked and internet-connected computers is the absolute requirement of dealing with malicious code attacks (Erbschloe 2004). There is no choice; if your systems are not equipped in some way with antivirus protection, sooner or later some bug will eat them. There is also very little to be gained by whining about how vulnerable computer systems are to malicious code attacks.
