Ghosts in the System

I've been running sweeps with Dr. Keen through our systems ever since what happened with M.C. Spammer. We want to make sure that his attack left nothing behind.

For about a week, everything seemed clear but now irregularities are popping up in our scans. I think there might be another attack coming.

Tampering with Hugs

I finally finished digging through all of the Email Hugs code. I think I've found the source of the problem. It seems that some nasty malware has gotten into my email client. Every Hugs email I received ended up being automatically forwarded to people in my address book over 10 times. Each of them forwarded the hug 10 more times, and it just became a mess.

There is just something in Email Hugs that is triggering that malware. I better tell Commander Omni.

Hugging Bugging

I ran another test of Email Hugs today and it completely freaked out. Commander Omni had to order a reset of all campus computers to stop it from spreading. She was very peeved at me, but I fixed the worming code. I don't know what went wrong with it.

Halloween Dancing

I caved to Dana's pressure. She brought me a black trench coat she borrowed from her brother. It was a little big, but with the help of some hair gel and a pair of black jeans I was able to become Neo from The Matrix. Dana somehow found the clothes for becoming Trinity. We didn't dance much, but Dana didn't seem to mind. I was a bit embarrassed by her sudden attention.
