Students, Faculty and Staff who own Macs will need to install BootCamp on their computers with Windows 7.  Once this process is complete, Mac users will be able to use BootCamp to install ArcGIS.  Mac users should not use Disk Cleanup or Disk Defragmenter for maintenance.  They should, however, install F-Secure or another antivirus program for the Windows environment.  Users with Drew-issued Macs will get the Drew Windows 7 image with F-Secure pre-installed.

Upgrade Virus Protection Software

As of Fall 2011, all Drew users should have installed F-Secure Antivirus on their laptops to replace F-Prot.  Users who have not done so are not protected from malware.

How do I know if I have F-Secure on my computer?

  1. Go to Start → All Programs
  2. If you have F-Secure, you will see the F-Secure Anti-Virus for Workstations icon in the list (click image to enlarge)



    If you still see F-Prot in your list of programs, you must install F-Secure to restore virus protection on your computer.

Installing F-Secure on Your Drew PC from Application Explorer

  1. Find the Application Explorer icon on your desktop.



  2. Double-click on the icon.
  3. Double-click on the All icon.
  4. Find the Install F-Secure AntiVirus icon among the available programs. Double-click on it. (click image to enlarge)



    F-Secure will start the installation process. This may take a few minutes. You will be prompted to allow the program to continue and to uninstall F-Prot from the system. If you encounter messages asking you for such permissions, click Yes/OK.

    Once the installation is complete, restart your computer.
