Virus Warning 
When enabled, you receive a warning message if a program (specifically, a virus) attempts to write to the 
boot sector or the partition table of the hard disk drive.    You should then run an anti-virus program. 
Keep in mind that this feature protects only the boot sector, not the entire hard drive.   
CAUTION
 
 
 
Many disk diagnostic programs that access the boot sector table can trigger the virus warning 
message.    If you plan to run such a program, we recommend that you first disable the virus warning. 
 
Enabled 
Activates automatically when the system boots up causing a 
warning message to appear when anything attempts to access 
the boot sector or hard disk partition table. 
Disabled 
No warning message will appear when anything attempts to 
access the boot sector or hard disk partition table.
