2-14 Introducing the Software
McAfee Anti Virus Software
The McAfee AntiVirus software is installed to scan your system for any vi-
rus infections. WebScan and VirusScan are two scanning software tools in-
cluded on the NEC Versa 4200. In Windows for Workgroups, a Vshield
icon is shipped minimized as an icon on the desktop to easily determine
whether protection-level software is running or not, as well as provide a vi-
rus alert chime message when a virus is resident.
WebScan software protects your system against virus infection from files
attached to mail messages or from files you download from the Internet.
WebScan is activated any time you download executable and Microsoft
Word document files and scans mail through the Pegasus Mail system.
Also included is the SPRY Mosaic browser and the WebScan Web
browser, which gives access to the Internet.
VirusScan, detects, identifies and disinfects known DOS, Windows for
Workgroups, and Windows 95 computer viruses. It checks memory as
well as both the system and data areas of disks for virus infections. In
most cases, it will eliminate and fully repair infected programs or system
areas to their original condition.
Set up the WebScan software on your NEC Versa 4200 computer using the
easy-to-follow setup program.
NOTE
Before you can use the WebScan software and connect to the
Internet, you must first purchase and install a modem card into your
NEC Versa 4200 computer. Make sure the PC Card is connected to
a working phone line. The line must be an analog line. If you are un-
sure what type of line you have, call your local telephone company.
It is strongly recommended that you install the modem card in your
NEC Versa prior to running the WebScan Setup program. As part of
the Setup program, it recognizes the modem information. If you run
the Setup program without an installed modem, you will have to
manually enter the modem information the first time you use the on-
line service.
