An alert utility, WinAVAlarm, is automatically installed on Windows systems
when 3DM is installed. It can provide immediate notification of events,
through a popup message and an audible alert. By default it is set to notify you
whenever an error (high-severity event) occurs, through both a popup
message and an audible alert. You can configure the alert settings to specify
types of events you want to be notified of: Errors, Warnings, or Information.
WinAVAlarm is a stand-alone utility and does not require 3DM to be running,
unlike e-mail notification. After it is installed, an icon for it appears in your
System tray.
