Today is the day that the Conficker computer trojan/worm is to come alive. OUIT has made a website regarding all aspects of how to protect or check your machine to see if it is infected. If you suspect that your machine may be affected, check out the OUIT information link.

Over the semester break, I am hoping to complete a few asks. I felt that I would list the major ones and invite comments on any issues, problems, or ideas for what may be important for the next term. So not in any particular order, here are some of the major tasks I will be working:

• Finish configuration and setup of two new Apple Mac Pros for Auxiliary Computer lab (NWC 3630).
• Rack and install server for OWL to run local versions of the WRF.
• Rack and begin setup of new LDAP server for the SoM.
• Clean up my office.

If I do not get a chance to see everyone, have a good and safe break. See in you January.
