The message "Your computer might be
at risk" is displayed
This message is displayed by the "Security Center" function in Windows XP.
The "Security Center" is a function that monitors the level of safety in Windows
security settings in order to operate the computer safely, for example, with
regard to antivirus measures.
It checks the following three items regularly, and displays messages until the
settings are made at an appropriate level of safety.
• Firewall: Is the Windows Firewall enabled?
• Automatic Updates: Is the automatic Windows Update function enabled?
• Virus Protection: Has antivirus software been installed, has the latest version
of the antivirus software been installed, and is the real-time search function
enabled (ON)?
The message "Your computer might be at risk" is displayed by the "Security
Center" function, and does not indicate an error or malfunction. The "Security
Center" function checks the above three items to ensure that your computer
can be used safely, and notifies the user if the settings are not at an appropriate
level of safety.
You can continue to use the computer even if these messages continue to be
displayed, but we recommend that you follow the procedures below to minimize
damage from viruses.
