Next steps

Creating recovery discs

After setting up the computer for the first time, it is

recommended that you create a set of recovery discs of the

full factory image. The recovery discs are used to start up

(boot) the computer and recover the operating system and

software to factory settings in case of system failure or

instability.

For information on how to create a set of recovery discs, refer

to “Creating recovery discs” in Chapter 4.

Protecting the computer

The information in this section is designed to protect your

computer from damage caused by a virus, a security breach,

a power surge, unsafe operation, or system failure.

Protecting the computer from viruses

When you use the computer for e-mail, network, or Internet

access, you expose it to computer viruses that can disable the

operating system, applications, or utilities or cause them to

function abnormally.

Antivirus software can detect most viruses, destroy them, and

in most cases repair damage they have caused. To provide

ongoing protection against newly discovered viruses,

antivirus software must be kept up to date.

Norton Internet Security is preinstalled on the computer:

■Your version of Norton Internet Security includes 60 days

of free updates. It is strongly recommended that you

protect the computer against new viruses beyond 60 days

by purchasing extended update service.

■To access Norton Internet Security, select Start > All

Programs > Norton Internet Security.

Protecting your system files

The operating system and Recovery Manager software

provide several ways to back up the system and to recover

optimal system functionality. For additional information, refer

to Chapter 4, “Backup and recovery.”

Protecting your privacy

When you use the computer for e-mail, network, or Internet

access, it is possible for unauthorized persons to obtain

information about you or your computer.

To optimize the privacy protection features:

■Keep the operating system and software updated. Many

software applications contain security enhancements.

■Use a firewall. A firewall is software that monitors

incoming traffic on the computer. Some firewalls also

monitor outgoing traffic. To check the status of the

firewall, select Start > Control Panel > Security.

Protecting the computer from power surges

To protect the computer from the power surges that may be

caused by an uncertain power supply or an electrical storm,

observe these practices:

■Plug the computer power cord into an optional,

high-quality surge protector. Surge protectors are

available from most computer or electronics retailers.
