Computer Glitch Causes Statewide Shutdown
KENTUCKY....
Computer virus protection is a good thing, if it works correctly. However, Wednesday, several computers were shut down statewide when, around 1:00 P.M., a security software glitch hit systems throughout the state. It apparently began with an update to McAfee security software, affecting computers in police departments and several Kentucky school districts. The faulty update has been removed from all McAfee download servers.
