2.2.1 Advanced settings
After selecting Advanced settings, you will be prompted to select a location for the installation. By default, the
program installs to the following directory:
C:\Program Files\ESET\ESET Smart Security\
Click Browse to change this location (not recommended).
Click Next to configure your Internet connection. If you use a proxy server, it must be correctly configured for virus
signature updates to work. If you are not sure whether you use a proxy server to connect to the Internet, select Use
the same settings as Internet Explorer (Recommended) and click Next. If you do not use a proxy server, select I do
not use a proxy server.
To configure your proxy server settings, select I use a proxy server and click Next. Enter the IP address or URL of your
proxy server in the Address field. In the Port field, specify the port where the proxy server accepts connections
(3128 by default). In the event that the proxy server requires authentication, enter a valid Username and Password
to grant access to the proxy server. Proxy server settings can also be copied from Internet Explorer if desired. To do
this, click Apply and confirm the selection.
Custom installation allows you to define how automatic program updates will be handled on your system. Click
Change... to access Advanced settings.
If you do not want program components to be updated, select Never update program components. Select Ask
before downloading program components to display a confirmation window each time the system attempts to
download program components. To download program component upgrades automatically, select Always update
program components.
NOTE: After a program component update, a restart is usually required. We recommend selecting If necessary,
restart computer without notifying.
The next installation window offers the option to set a password to protect your program settings. Select Protect
configuration settings with a password and enter your password into the the New password and Confirm new
password fields. This password will be required to change or access the settings of ESET Smart Security. When both
password fields match, click Next to continue.
To complete the next installation steps, ESET Live Grid and Detection of potentially unwanted applications, follow
the instructions in the Live installer section (see “Live installer”).
Next, select a filtering mode for the ESET Personal firewall. Four filtering modes are available for the ESET Smart
Security Personal firewall. The behavior of the firewall changes based on the selected mode. Filtering modes also
influences the level of user interaction required.
To disable the first scan after installation that is normally performed when installation finishes to check for
malicious code, deselect the check box next to Enable scan after installation. Click Install in the Ready to install
window to complete installation.
2.3 Product activation
After the installation is complete, you will be prompted to activate your product.
There are several methods for activating your product. Availability of a particular activation scenario in the
activation window may vary depending on the country, as well as the means of distribution (CD/DVD, ESET web
page, etc.).
If you purchased a retail boxed version of the product, select Activate using an Activation Key. The Activation Key is
usually located inside or on the back side of the product package. The Activation Key must be entered as supplied
for activation to be successful.
If you received a Username and Password, select Activate using a Username and Password and enter your
credentials into the appropriate fields.
