connecting to the internet.
You might get messages from McAfee Virus Protection. If you do, click •
Check protection status, then Fix to make sure your laptop is fully
protected.

until you get your username and password from O2.
We suggest you connect to the internet through Wi-Fi or fixed broadband •
for any Windows Update, as this can involve downloading large files.
