2. Installation
There are several methods for installing ESET Smart Security on your computer. Installation methods may vary
depending on country and means of distribution:
Live installer can be downloaded from the ESET website. The installation package is universal for all languages
(choose a desired language). Live installer itself is a small file; additional files required to install ESET Smart
Security will be downloaded automatically.
Offline installation – This type of installation is used when installing from a product CD/DVD. It uses an .msi file
that is larger than the Live installer file and does not require an internet connection or additional files for the
completion of installation.
Important: Make sure that no other antivirus programs are installed on your computer before you install ESET Smart
Security. If two or more antivirus solutions are installed on a single computer, they may conflict with each other. We
recommend that you uninstall any other antivirus programs on your system. See our ESET Knowledgebase article for
a list of uninstaller tools for common antivirus software (available in English and several other languages).
2.1 Live installer
Once you have downloaded the Live installer installation package, double-click the installation file and follow the
step-by-step instructions in the installer window.
Important: For this type of installation you must be connected to Internet.
Select your desired language from the Select product language drop-down menu and click Install. Allow a few
moments for installation files to download.
After you accept the End-User License Agreement, you will be prompted to configure ESET Live Grid. ESET Live Grid
helps ensure that ESET is immediately and continuously informed about new threats in order to protect our
customers. The system allows you to submit new threats to the ESET Virus Lab where they are analyzed, processed
and added to the virus signature database.
By default, Yes, I want to participate is selected, which will activate this feature.
The next step in the installation process is to configure detection of potentially unwanted applications. Potentially
unwanted applications are not necessarily malicious, but can negatively affect the behavior of your operating
system. See the Potentially unwanted applications chapter for more details.
Click Next to start the installation process.
