Protection from Viruses and Other Malware
It is unlikely that your
NOOK
could become infected by a virus or other malware. Your
NOOK
does
not host applications; this reduces the likelihood of malware infection. The file types supported by
your
NOOK
are also unlikely to harbor malware, although some of them can. Your nook does have
an Internet browser, which could be a source of infection.
It is possible to transfer files containing malware to and from your
NOOK
using USB, just as it
is possible to transfer files that are not infected. In some cases, infected computers can transfer
infections to USB drives automatically.
We recommend that any computer to which you connect your
NOOK
is scanned routinely
with up-to-date antivirus/anti-malware software, and that you scan files before transferring
them to your
NOOK
.
You can also scan the nook drive and a drive for a supplemental microSD card if present, when
your
NOOK
is connected to USB.
