Updated the antivirus and firewall pages, sent out an urgent email to my unit and all students regarding Netsky.C and MyDoom.F worms. Troubleshot a linkcheck problem—the dev server ran out of disk space because the SAA server had an infinite loop redirect problem. Julie B and I hashed it out. After a while, Jina says the server is back again and now linklint runs fine. It was the first time Julie and I had ever seen an error 414: Requested URI is too long. Updated a broken link for a medq article. Disinfected a laptop for a student which had gotten the Netsky.C virus. HIPAA physical security meeting. Helped James with the laptop, ensuring that it would be able to meet all his needs on his trip to DC. Chatted with another student about a computer worm infection. E-mailed another student about WebMail problems. Sent out an e-mail to all students about problems with WebMail. Sent out an e-mail to all students about problems with the SAA Web server. Dinner at home with Patrick: Seniore's chicken special pizza, salad.
