What is dis advantage of Human Machine Interface?
There really aren't any disadvantages of an HMI. Typically, HMIs are used in factories, manufacturing process lines, and actually places like Sheetz to order food. HMIs have greatly advanced efficiency & safety in manufacturing. A worker will input, or enter data on a screen and an automated process could function for an entire shift without human involvement. The only disadvantage would be; 'there aren't enough choices on the screen', for ex. You might want a hamburger cooked 'medium' instead of well done.

I would suggest not developing a standard program, but rather working with your veterinarian to address worming issues as needed in specific foals.

In case your computer got infected, try the following:
- Get an antivirus program (if you don't have one already)
- Update your antivirus
- Scan all your computer and delete, repair or quarantine the infected files.
To keep your computer virus free:
- Have an antivirus program and update it from time to time (some even update automatically)
- Use a firewall.
- Only download files from sources you trust.

- For more protection you can scan your computer with online scanners provided free by some of the best companies.
