Phishing Scam Hits Campus Mailboxes

Recently several members of the campus community have fallen victim to a scam related to Wooster’s email services. Wooster’s online access for email is referred to as Scotmail, not webnews or webmail, and we are not currently updating our database of information. These messages are not legitimate. The spam message that many people have received comes from a fraudulent sender, not the Wooster IT department. It requests your username and password, country, state, and other personal information. Do not send your information in response to that email. If you have submitted your information by mistake, please change your password immediately at the following website: https://secureweb.wooster.edu/password

2008 Standard supports only 4GB, while the 32-bit Windows Server 2008 Datacenter supports

64GB. Likewise, the 64-bit Windows Server 2008 Standard supports 32GB and the 64-bit

Windows Server 2008 Datacenter can handle a whopping 2TB. There aren't many 2TB systems

out there, but the Windows Server Performance Team knows of a couple, including one

they had in their lab at one point. Here's a screenshot of Task Manager running on
