During routine network analysis, we have detected a computer, registered to you, exhibiting behavior that could be the result of a virus exploit or file serving activity. ?What has alerted us is the device has been corresponding with a large number of off-campus computers over short periods of time, or the device has been downloading/uploading large amounts of data to/from the Internet, or both.

Since we DO NOT look at the content of the data flowing to/from computers, the detected activity may have a legitimate purpose. ?If that is so and you are aware of the computer activity, you may disregard this notice.

If, however, ?you don?t believe your computer should be downloading/uploading a large number of files from/to off-campus computers or contacting large numbers of computers off-campus, your computer could be compromised.
