Roberts internet radio virus protection

Benedict · 2017-05-27 10:30:32

My anti-virus keeps telling me it has spotted an unprotected device and I should protect it with anti-virus. The device is an internet radio - but I can't figure out how you would protect it. Anyone know if there is any need for anti-virus on a Roberts internet radio - and if so, how is it done?

Thanks bren2002, I suspected that there was no need to protect the radio with anti-virus - but I wasn't sure.

Sometimes updates are downloaded to the radio (I presume they come from Roberts) so I had thought there just might be a risk of viruses being downloaded too.
