However, in order to operate the computer more safely, we recommend making the appropriate measures to reduce damage from virus and other attacks, thus avoiding 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 displayed. 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.
