Using antivirus software

When you use the computer for e-mail, network, or Internet access, you expose it to computer viruses. Computer viruses can disable the operating system, software programs, or utilities, or cause them to function abnormally.

Antivirus software can detect most viruses, destroy them, and in most cases repair any damage that viruses may have caused. To provide ongoing protection against newly discovered viruses, antivirus software must be kept up to date.

Norton Internet Security, which is preinstalled on the computer, includes an antivirus program. The software includes a free update period. It is strongly recommended that you protect the computer against new viruses beyond the free period by purchasing extended update service. Instructions for using and updating Norton Internet Security software, and for purchasing extended update service, are provided within the program.

To open and access Norton Internet Security:

1Click the Windows Start Button on the taskbar.

2Click All Programs.

3Click Norton Internet Security, and then click Norton Internet Security again.
