SUMMARY
If you have VSAFE virus scanning software on your machine, you should
disable VSAFE from the CONFIG.SYS file and/or the AUTOEXEC.BAT file
and restart your system before installing Windows 3.1. This applies to
new installations and upgrades from Windows 3.0.
After Windows is installed, you may use VSAFE. If you are using
SMARTDRV.EXE version 4.0, load it after VSAFE.
If VSAFE is running when you upgrade to Windows 3.1 from Windows 3.0,
you receive several error messages about the .COM and .EXE files being
changed.
