WCLO's Steve Benton reports on a computer bug that got into Janesville School District computer servers
JANESVILLE — A computer bug got into some of the Janesville School District's servers September 19th and it wasn't detected right away.
Director of Business Services, Doug Bunton, says the virus goes right into the servers and destroys programs. Replacing the programs will take three to four weeks according to Bunton.
The primary task of re-installing the programs falls on the shoulders of the tech staff, and they've been working long hours and on the weekend. In addition, the district is calling in some outside consultants, and they're checking with the software company that provides protection for district computers.
