Using the virus protection features
Several options on the Security and Anti-Virus screen allow
you to define system protection features.
The Diskette access option allows you to restrict access
to your diskette drives based on the password levels you have
defined. This prevents unauthorized users from accessing the
drives and possibly introducing a virus to your system. You
can restrict diskette access only if passwords are enabled and
you have enabled the Password on boot option.
If you select Supervisor for this option, you can access the
diskette drives only if you enter the Supervisor password when
you start your system. Someone who starts the system with a
User password, however, will see an error message when he or
she tries to access the diskette drive. If you select user for
the Diskette access option, you can access the diskette
drives whether you enter the Supervisor or User password
when you start the system.
Note
To use passwords for diskette drive access, you must enable
the Password on boot option. If you select a password
level for Diskette access, but leave the Password
on boot option disabled, you see an error message
whenever you try to access your diskette drive.
You can also protect your system by selecting Write
protect for the Fixed disk boot sector option.
When this option is enabled, the system displays an error
message when a program tries to write to the boot sector of
your hard disk drive. To use a legitimate program (such as the
MS-DOS FORMAT command) you must disable the write
protect option.
