Anti-Virus Guide

All computers need virus protection. You should have an anti-virus program running at all times

Don’t rely on a free program. You should have either Norton Anti-Virus, or McAfee Virus Scan.

New computer viruses are being created all of the time, so it’s important to update your virus definitions at least twice a month.

To update your virus protection:
Norton Anti-Virus-
1) Connect to the Internet
2) Go to ‘Start’, ‘Programs’, and click ‘Norton AntiVirus’.
3) Select ‘Live Update- Norton AntiVirus’, and follow the directions.

McAfee Virus Scan-

Updating VirusScan 5.x

1) Connect to the Internet.
2) Go to ‘Start’, ‘Programs’, and click ‘McAfee VirusScan’

4) Click on the Update button located in the lower left corner.
5) Click Next on the window named "Welcome to McAfee SecureCast Online!"
