James Madison University Computer Security Warning

This message is being sent from an automated security program. Your computer is completely open
to the network. 

Anyone on the network can see or modify any of your files and install software
that would let them capture your passwords, access your accounts, watch what your type, read
your e-mail and instant messages, and change your course schedule. In addition, viruses
often infect computers such as yours.

The most common reasons for your computer to be like this are:

-You have failed to set a password on your computer's Administrator account or
-Someone has configured your computer to share its entire hard drive ( this is sometimes
mistakenly done without a password for support or backup purposes and subsequently left open ).

For the sake of your privacy, accounts, and files, it is very important that you correct this
situation as soon as possible. Please check your Windows Administrator account password, file
sharing configuration, and status of your anti-virus software ASAP.
