Greetings --
If you don't see any entries for any sort of antivirus application
in the Start Menu (click Start > All Programs), and none is listed by
the Control Panel's (click Start > Control Panel > Add/Remove
Programs) Add/Remove programs applet, you may well not have any
antivirus application installed.
However, reputable OEMs, such as Dell, usually include at least a
trial version of some antivirus application with their PCs. One way
to find out, besides making a phone call, would be to visit Dell's web
site, create yourself a login account, and then use their Support site
to determine exactly what was included with your specific computer (by
serial number, which Dell calls a Service Tag) when it left the
factory.
