Securing Your Notebook

To attach a security cable

Your notebook includes a built-in connector to allow you to secure the notebook with a cable and a lock (such as the Kensington MicroSaver lock system, available at many notebook stores).

1.Wrap the cable around a secure object, such as a table leg.

2.Insert the cable into the security cable slot on the notebook.

3.Lock it with the cable lock key, and store the key in a safe place away from the notebook.

To protect against viruses

Virus-protection software can help protect the integrity of your data. This is especially important if you use the Web.

Your notebook comes equipped with Norton AntiVirus software.

Because new viruses appear frequently, you will also want to update the program virus definitions from time to time. Norton AntiVirus updates are on the Web at www.symantec.com. You can also get detailed instructions from the program’s online Help.
