Will A Virus Use The Phone?
Hi,
I have two computers, each being hooked up to the internet via the phone and modem. They are both plugged into a telephone splitter that holds about 5 phones and then into the wall jack. One of the computers recently became infected with a virus (Win32.KillApp) I have not ran the other computer at the same time anymore because I do not know if it is possible for the clean computer to become infected with the same virus merely by both being online at the same time.
Is it possible ? They are not hooked up together as in 'home networking' just on the same splitter that goes into the wall jack for the phone.
Thank you for any info!!
