Updating your antivirus software
If your computer has a preloaded Microsoft Windows operating system, it comes
with antivirus software that you can use to detect and eliminate viruses. Lenovo
provides a full version of antivirus software on your hard disk with a free 90-day
subscription. After 90 days, you must get a new virus definition.
For more information about updating your antivirus software, refer to the Access
Help online help system . See “Access Help” on page 42 for instructions on how to
open the online help system.
