Make sure you are getting the latest virus definitions (information about the latest viruses) daily with your configuration. This is important, as new viruses are released daily. You will want to schedule a monthly full system scan when you are configuring it. Most anti-virus software does this automatically for you, but it is good practice to verify this.
Windows
