Using the Notebook Safetly
Protecting the Notebook Against Computer
Viruses
When you use the notebook for email, network, or Internet
access, you expose the notebook to computer viruses. Computer
viruses can disable the operating system, your applications, or
your utilities or cause them to function abnormally.
Antivirus software can detect most viruses, destroy them, and
in most cases repair damage they have caused. To provide
protection against newly discovered viruses, antivirus software
must be updated.
For antivirus instructions and more information about virus
updates, refer to the Help file within the application or select
Start > Help and Support.
