Steve Sanders led UW-Parkside with a game Virus Alert APRIL SCHOENBERG MANAGING EDITOR Internet users beware! The Internet community is once again plagued by a computer virus. Instead of a destructive trojan virus (like most viruses) this virus, referred to as Deeyenda Maddick, performs a comprehensive search on your computer, looking for valuable information such as e-mail and login passwords, credit cards, personal information and so forth. The Deeyenda virus is virtually undetectable, and once attacked, your computer will be Insecure. Some viruses in the past have proven to be a hoax, however; University of Wisconsin- Parkside's Student Government Vice-President, Jason Weniger learned the reality of the virus after Deeyenda got a hold of his computer. "My $3000 computer has now become a paper- weight." shared Weniger frus- tratingly. Weniger learned of the virus about two weeks ago and has been warning fnends f page 7/Basketball Levi Bradley f Students host on-campus rave I about it. The Deeyenda virus is also capable of staying in memory for a long time while running a host of applications and opera- tion systems, such as Windows 3.11 and Windows 95. What this means (Q internet users is that when a login and PASS- WORD are sent to the server, this virus can COPY this infor- mation and send it out to an unknown address. The nature of the virus and the security risks it causes are the reason for all of the attention it has received. Although i·tcan attack any as, this virus is most likely to attack those users viewing Java enhanced Web Pages (Netscape 2.0+ and Microsoft Internet Explorer 3.0+, which are run- ning on Windows 95.) If you receive the Deeyenda virus, you should delete it immediately. Virus problems can usually be remedied with a disinfect program that will remove the virus. However, be aware that disks infected with the virus have the potential of reinfecting your computer. was held. Additionally, Inner Loop Road was closed off to traf- fic. And all of the doors to the Union, except for the entrance from the Union parking lot, were sealed off. "We were expecting that problem because they gave us rules of no pass-out alcohol. I've been to university activities for the last eight years - it's been the first one with a no-alcohol rule because of non-students being there," said Hansen. Hansen said he witnessed alcohol being sold to stu- dents entering the Union cinema who he said "were obviously not students." "There's been some miscommunication," said Rich Karwatka, Student Organization Council (S.O.c.) presi- dent. "People (were) running off and doing things with- out asking first." But Karwatka said he was only involved in the "outskirts" of planning the event. Hansen said that the club wants to be recognized but not to receive funding. The club was formally recognized last semester, with a status similar to that of Intervarsity Christian Fellowship (IVCF) and the fraternities on cam- pus. "They're recognized as a club by SOC, but because in their constitution they charge dues, they are not eligible for funding," said Karwatka. In the club's constitution is a statement of purpose to promote UW-Parkside.

Full house at lecture on spiritual decline JASON KLUZAK NEWS INTERN Union 104 was packed with faculty and interested listeners when University of Wisconsin- Parkside history professor Thomas Reeves delivered a lec- ture regarding the question: "Is America a Christian Nation?" on Wednesday, January 29, Approximately 50 to 60 people attended, Reeves provided those that attended with a brief lecture on church history and its movement across the seas into colonial America. America has histori- cally been a Christian nation. During the Reformation, there were conflicts between the Catholic and Protestant clergy when the issue of mingling church and state came up. Despite the differences, few early Americans doubted their relationship with God, The resolution to this and other religious conflicts came with the drafting of the First Amendment. Reeves emphasized that "America was founded on the freedom of religion and not from religion," In the 1950's, church attendance in America was at a peak and Reeves termed this decade "the Golden Age of Religion." At that time, President Eisenhower attended a Prayer Breakfast and it was there that the popular phrase, "In God We Trust," became our national motto. Also at this event the two words, "...under God ... " were added to our Pledge of Allegiance, Along with this background, Reeves gave statistics indicative of our country's dedication to its religion. These statistics appeared to be optimistic about the state of the church in modern PCOC Looks For Volunteers JEl'iNIFER PUCCINI FEATURE EDITOR For all you students who are interested in volunteering some of your time to your community either for volunteer time towards your major or for pleasure, think about joining the PCOC (Parkside's Community Outreach Club), This club is involved with events in both Racine and Kenosha counties and other counties as well.

"We comped a couple of the high schools, Bradford and Tremper, Carthage (College) actually pushed our event for us, They stamped like 50 flyers:' Also, to encourage dancing at the rave, they gave tickets to people who they saw danced well in local clubs that they attended, About the lower than expected attendance at the rave, "a lot of 1 our problems had to do with Union 209, They didn't like what we were doing," said f Hansen. The club had originally planned a rave for last ( December, called the Santa Rave, and planned to donate pro- I ceeds for charitable means, food for families.
