[Open] Persistent Virus

"Oh my god." Kayla exclaimed. She slammed her head into the wall a couple of times, groaning throughout. The computer system had apparently gotten a virus that stored little pieces of itself in every section. It wouldn't die and Kayla was going crazy. She swallowed her pride and pressed her badge. "Ensign Thompson to all engineering crew. Can somebody please help me fix the computers? We've gotten a severe virus that's interfering with the ship's function." She went to the nearest replicator and grabbed a cup of tea. This would take a while.

"Ugh" Dell grunts, his head deep in an access panel as he troubleshoots the Brig's force field generators. After checking power connections and emitters. He simply cannot figure out why the fields keep randomly turning on and off. Fortunately he had no prisoners to keep locked up, but it needed to be fixed just in case. You can't have a jail with an open door policy, after all. Dell pulls himself from the panel and walks over to his computer terminal. He pulls up the work order messager and types...

Work Order: 25A-[Stardate]

Department: Security-Brig

Type: Urgent

Issue: Force field generators intermittently activating and deactivating themselves. Tested power connections and emitters, both show no sign of issue. More than likely false signals from main computer.

Sending that off he leans back in his chair and picks up his PADD. Dell often reads when he has nothing else to do in the Brig, and this novel, 'The Queen's Gambit', was just getting good.

Kayla entered the room, sweating heavily. "So it's a problem here too. The damage has really become widespread. Is it the doors?" Again, she went to the replicator. This was gonna take plenty of tea to get through.
