Well as you probably know, I work @ McDonald's () part time. Yesterday I was sent home from work early because the resteraunt had to be shut down. Want to know why? We were attacked by a virus/hacker. It started with the touch-screen tills acting up, then the screen that shows orders was frozen, then the server attacked itself, then the resteraunt computers, essentially, went into a lock-down. This apparently not the first time it has happened, and the motive for the attack appears to be to leach data off of the server . Very dodgy, but the good news is - if the resteraunt has to close for a while - I get $120/week of EI for doing jack squat ... (BTW, the server IS connected to the internet.)
Note:
Just in case you wanted to know, the server runs Microsoft Windows NT Server, and the tills run a revised edition of Microsoft Windows ME: Shit edition :reruck: ...
