Some video files use a Codec that is not installed as a standard. In these cases, if you play
back the video file after connecting to the Internet, the Codec may be downloaded automatically, allowing you to play back the file.
If you cannot start up a program or share files, this may be because the “Firewall (Windows Firewall)” in the “Windows Security Center” is set to be enabled.
If this function is set to be enabled, damage from viruses and other attacks is reduced, but
some programs and functions cannot be operated.
To use the program or to share files or printers:
You can use programs or other functions without the effects of the Windows Firewall by
registering them as an exception in the Windows Firewall settings (it is not necessary to
disable the Windows Firewall).
Note, however, that if a program is registered as an exception, there is a risk of damage
from viruses or other attacks. Before registering a program as an exception, confirm the
program’s safety with the manufacturer or other reliable source.
1 Select [start] - [Control Panel] - [Security Center] - [Windows Firewall].
2 Select [Exceptions].
3 To register a network game or other programs as an exception:
Select [Add Program], select the program, and select [OK].
To set access through a specified port as an exception:
Select [Add Port], set the port, and select [OK].
To set a file or printer as an exception:
Add the check mark for [File and Printer Sharing].
4 Confirm that there is a check mark for the item to be set as an exception, and select [OK].
The Windows Firewall is a security function designed to protect your computer from
unauthorized access via the Internet and other external networks.
The firewall regulates the data exchanged between the computer and the external network,
so that only approved data can pass through. We recommend that you use your computer
with the Firewall enabled to minimize damage from viruses and other malicious attacks.
When installing additional commercially available firewall software, we recommend that
you disable the Windows Firewall settings, as the new software may interfere with the
Windows Firewall functions.
For details, refer to the manual accompanying the firewall software to be installed.
Only Windows Update programs with a high level of priority will be automatically downloaded (or installed).
Update programs with a comparatively low level of importance will not be downloaded
(or installed) automatically. Check regularly whether new update programs have become
available.
The Security Center warning function will not operate if you are using a network domain,
for example at a company.
Problem with Web page display (no display; display is
completely white; advertisements, logon, and other popups are not displayed)
In Windows XP, security functions have been strengthened with regard to Web contents.
One of these is the “Pop-up Blocker,” which may prevent some Web pages from being
displayed.
If you have any problems with Web page displays (e.g., if a page cannot be displayed
correctly on Internet Explorer), check the contents of the message window displayed below the address bar (called the “Information Bar”). The Information Bar shows the information that has been suppressed by Internet Explorer.
• If the message “Pop-up blocked” is displayed:
Select the message, and select “Temporarily Allow Pop-ups.”
The blocked Popup will be displayed temporarily.
• If the message “This site might require the following ActiveX control...” is displayed:
1 Select the message, and select “Install ActiveX Control.”
2 Check “Name” and “Publisher” on the [Security Warning] screen, and execute the
installation.
• If you cannot find the Information Bar:
If you need to display the page, select the Web page link while pressing Ctrl . The
pop-up blocker function will be temporarily disabled.
Images in HTML e-mail
messages are not displayed
in Outlook Express
In Windows XP, there is a function that blocks image displays in HTML e-mail messages.
To display images in HTML e-mail messages, it is necessary to access the sender’s server,
and this may cause problems in the computer.
Preventing these images from appearing can decrease the risk of attack from viruses etc.
If you need to display images, select the segment where the message “Some pictures have
been blocked?” is displayed. The images can be displayed temporarily.
Cannot read attachment file
in Outlook Express (cannot
save file)
If a message received in Outlook Express has contained an attachment file with an extension such as “.exe” or “.scr” (potentially unsafe files), Windows XP blocks those files.
If you need to read the files, select [Tools] - [Options] - [Security] and remove the check
mark from [Do not allow attachments to be saved or opened that could potentially be a
virus].
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.
1 Read the message.
2 Select

Hard Disk Backup Function
The hard disk backup function creates a backup area (storage area) on the hard disk. This area is to back up (store) hard disk
contents or restore backed up contents to their original locations.
By backing up the data on your hard disk to a backup area, you can protect your data from loss or damage resulting from operational
errors or other factors. Also, you can back up or restore hard disk contents using this computer alone, without having to use other
media or peripheral devices.
At the time of purchase, the hard disk backup function is disabled. If you follow the procedure below to create a backup area, the
hard disk backup function will be enabled, and you will be able to back up your data. Note, that once the backup function has been
page 33).
enabled, you will have to perform the reinstallation procedure to disable it again (
The hard disk backup function cannot back up or restore data properly if there is a problem with the hard disk when the data is
backed up or restored. Note that if an error occurs while data is being restored, whether as a result of an unexpected malfunction,
incorrect operation, or other reason, the data in the hard disk (data before restoration) may be lost.
Matsushita Electric Industrial Co., Ltd. will bear no responsibility for any damages suffered by the user (including loss of data)
as a result of the use of this function.
Preparing
Product Recovery CD-ROM (included)
Panasonic CD/DVD drive (optional: Confirm the latest information on optional products in catalogs, etc.)
Disconnect or remove all peripheral devices (except for the CD/DVD drive), as the backup area
may not be created properly while these devices are connected.
Be sure the AC adaptor is connected to the computer.
A backup area cannot be created if the hard disk is already divided into several partitions. Return
the computer to its condition at the time of purchase (one partition only), and create the backup
area.
To divide the partition, make the selection when the backup area is created (
page 38 step 8).
If the partition configuration is changed (partitions created, size changed, etc.) after the backup
area has been created, it will no longer be possible to execute the backup function. To change the
configuration, it is necessary to return the computer to its condition at the time of purchase, and
then create the backup area again.
The hard disk backup function will only work for the internal hard disk. This function does not
work with an external hard disk or the second hard disk (optional).
Backup and restore functions will not operate if the hard disk has been damaged.
Do not use the NTFS file system compression function, as this may result in insufficient capacity
of the backup area.
If the hard disk malfunctions, it will be impossible to read the data stored on it. We recommend
that you also back up important data to a location other than the hard disk (an external hard disk
or other media).
Execute a disk error check using the following procedure.
1 Select [Local Disk(C:)] with the right button in [start] - [My Computer], and select [Properties].
2 Select [Check Now] from [Tools].
3 In [Check Disk], select [Start] without adding a check mark beside any of the items.
If a message is displayed indicating that there is an error in the disk, display [Check Disk], and
add a check mark for [Automatically fix file system errors] and [Scan for and attempt recovery
of bad sectors], select [Start], and check for disk errors again.
The hard disk backup function does not accommodate dynamic disks. Do not convert the hard
disk to a dynamic disk.
