access to the Otterbein Network due to falling out of Microsoft
support.
Macintosh computers can connect to the residence hall
network and receive the same access to all technology resources
as Windows machines. Free McAfee is offered only to Windows
machines on the residence hall network.
The registration process will come at a later date. IT will
make an announcement. A default webpage will appear when you
open your browser and you will be asked to logon with your
username and webmail password. (network password) Your machine
will be scanned for current virus protection, updated Windows
and a current spyware remover.
The scan will identify any fixes needed to allow access
to the network. Prepare in advance by updating your Windows
operating system, have a current virus protection program
installed or remove it prior to registration to install the
free McAfee. You MUST remove old virus protection first or
risk corrupting your operating system before installing McAfee.
We recommend Windows Defender as a free spyware remover. This
program already comes with Windows Vista machines, so if you
have Windows XP you may want to install this free program.
