Useful Information

Operation

If the message “Your computer might be at risk” is displayed

Read the message, select (red icon) on the taskbar, and make the appropriate settings.

This message, which the Windows Security Center displays to confirm the security-related settings regularly, will be displayed until the settings are made more properly.

NOTE

This message does not indicate an error. You can use the computer while the message is displayed. However, in order to operate the computer more safely, we recommend mak- ing the appropriate measures to reduce damage from virus and other attacks, thus avoid- ing the appearance of this message.

The Pop-up Blocker

In Windows XP, security functions have been strengthened with regard to Web contents.

One of these is the “Pop-up Blocker,” which may prevent some Web pages from being dis- played.

Computer Viruses

Users are advised to purchase the latest versions of virus protection software and use them regularly.

We recommend you run the software:

When booting your computer.

After receiving data.

We recommend that you check data received on disks or from external sources, such as data downloaded from the Internet, e-mail, etc. (For compressed files, uncompress them before running a check).

For Data Execution Prevention (DEP), you can make one of the settings in the following menu. [start] - [Control Panel] - [Performance and Maintenance] - [System] - [Advanced] - [Settings] (in [Performance]) - [Data Execution Prevention].

For more information, refer to Windows help.

Windows Update

You can use the latest patches and service packs for Windows with the following menus.

Do not apply “Driver Updates” even if a message to update a driver appears. If a driver update is required, contact to Panasonic Technical Support. ( page 42)

[start] - [All programs] - [Windows Update]

Saving Data on the Hard Disk
