===Unit 7 and computer virus===
+
We have the final exam at the end of the week, and to help you prepare, there is a practice exam available [https://moodle.potsdam.edu/course/view.php?id=5940#section-0 inside Moodle], based on the 2012 exam.
I got a virus on my computer last night, and although I think I have cleared it up, it meant I had problems getting Unit 7 and the related reading posted.  I am now close to posting these, but I am doing a full virus scan before I post the files (I don't want to pass it on to you!)
 
  
The virus appeared right after I opened a lot of homeworks you sent to me - so please be aware that one of you may have been the source.  The file called itself something like "Windows XP Home AntiVirus 2012" and it mimicked a Windows OS application.  I was able to clear it by shutting down the computer and restarting it with F-Secure antivirus running, but it did do some damage before then.
