Protecting the Notebook Against
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.
The Norton AntiVirus 2003 software installed on your notebook
provides 60 days of free virus updates.
For Norton AntiVirus 2003 instructions and more information
about virus updates, refer to the Help file within the application or
select Start > Help and Support.
