This is a minor issue, but it bugs me:
On your "
Virus Report Form", you ask a user to enter information about a virus which recently attacked his or her system. I presume you want this information to get some idea of which viruses are prevalent out here in the wild, and where they're hitting.
The problem is that there is no option in any of these questions for "not attacked". I often receive viruses in my email, but I'm not inexperienced enough to open them and thus allow them to attack me. Instead, I carefully save them to a quarantine folder, then scan them out of curiosity to see which viruses they contain.
I assume my feedback as to where and what virus I received would be just as useful to you as that of someone who actually got victimized, but I cannot answer the questions accurately and say "I'm not a victim" to any of them! For example, here are two questions on the form:
How many PC's were infected by the virus?etc. Where's the option "0"?
Another one:
Did the virus cause damage to data?- No, it only infected some files or bootsectors.
- Yes, but I had a recent backup so finally there was no damage.
- Yes, I have lost some data.
Where's the option "No, it didn't infect me; I caught it in time."
There are several more questions with similar choices, but I won't list them here. I'd like to ask you to consider rewording the questions and/or adding additional answer choices to take into account that perhaps the would-be victim foiled the attempted attack before any infection occurred!
Thanks.
