Computer virus attack

Computer virus attack: "Computer virus attack On U.S. Marshal Service"

A computer virus attack has struck the computer system at the U.S. Marshal Service, affecting Marshals in Birmingham.

The virus has caused the Marshal Service to shut down parts of their system to keep it from spreading to other agencies.

That means Marshals in Birmingham can't access the NCIC computer and they don't have access to email.

A Marshals spokeswoman in Washington, D.C. says at no time was any data compromised.

The type of virus and its origin have not yet been determined."
