It is recommended that all members update their computer's virus protection software to contain the latest virus threat information. While most computers have this process scheduled at regular intervals, most can be run "on-demand". If you are unsure how to do this, please contact your virus software's manufacturer for details.


As always, please use extreme caution when downloading any attachments from your email. It is not recommended that you download ANY attachment unless you are specifically expecting one from another person. Even then, it is highly recommended you have the most recent (up to the minute) updates for your virus software.

Please remember: Writing.Com staff, in any form, will never email you an attachment. You should never download any attachments that claim to be from "Writing.Com's Management", "postmaster", "support" or any other personality representing Writing.Com's staff or management.


Thanks and be safe!
