"When you get a worm or a virus, your computer sends a message to a chat channel on IRC-the Internet Relay Chat." Ch 2 Pg 26

In this passage it talks about how when computers become infected with viruses messages travel through computer network to inform a specifc place of the threat of virus that is being put on the computer. This advance of technology shows that through computer networking the speed of it is within minutes in order to provide your computer with a better safe antivirus. In my opinion when I get a virus threat on my computer I am immediately informed of such problem and right away I put an antivirus on it because many of my documents could be infected and lost. Each day technology comes out with ideas in order to keep computers in a safe position.Many of these antivirus might be expensive according to what you purchase and many of these antivirus convey a message that it is the best and it is very safe. It tries to manipulate the human mind into buying because it is certain to provide a good antivirus protection and indeed it does.All computers in schools and hospitals have antivirus protection because many people often called third parties try to get into the network and drop in several viruses and infect the computers because they are getting out valuable information.
