Reference Dialogue for Task 2-Talking about computers and security

Victor:	Lingling, I think I've done it again!
Lingling:	What do you mean? What do you think you've done again?
Victor:	I think I've messed up my computer again.
Lingling:	You weren't downloading unauthorized software again, were you?
Victor:	No. This time it was an unusual email with an attachment. It was from somebody named "Lucy" with the subject "I Love You" but there was nothing in the attached file.
Lingling:	Do you know someone with the name "Lucy"?
Victor:	No, but I was so excited to get an email with the subject "I Love You" that I didn't pay any attention to who it was from.
Lingling:	That's a problem. It was probably the Love Bug virus.
Victor:	What should I do?
Lingling:	The Love Bug virus is pretty serious. I'll run some anti-virus software on your computer and try to clean it off. In the meantime, Victor, remember not to open any attached files in an email unless you know for sure who the person is that sent the email, and that you were supposed to receive an attached file. It's also a good idea to have your anti-virus software running whenever you open email.
