There has been a rise in cold call scammers trying to sell fake anti-virus software which itself is malware.
Charging over £70, they will request access to your PC to install the software. They might tell you that your computer has been infected by viruses and is now infecting others.
If you do get a call, just hang up – ensure that the only remote access request you approve is via poynter.net

Beeston Primary School have been making the most of their new ICT Suite by trying out some video editing, read the feedback from Chris Perry, the head teacher:
I had all of the PCs in our ICT suite in action today, each accessing over 36 separate video clips from our server and editing the clips on the individual PCs.
The edited clips were then saved as project files in the individual My Documents/My Videos folder without any incidents of hanging or any appreciable downtime while clips were rendered. This is quite amazing. Completed projects were then shared on our big screen for others to share.
Last year before the network was installed we could not have dreamed of trying to do this much work on our network, let alone manage to do it simultaneously as a class.
Many thanks for your support.
