5. Advanced user
This chapter describes features of ESET Smart Security which may be
useful for more advanced users. Setup options for these features are
accessible only in Advanced mode. To switch to Advanced mode, click
Change... in the bottom left corner of the main program window, or
press CTRL + M on your keyboard.
5.1 Proxy server setup
In ESET Smart Security, proxy server setup is available in two dierent
sections within the Advanced Setup tree.
First, proxy server settings can be configured under Miscellaneous >
Proxy server. Specifying the proxy server at this level defines global
proxy server settings for all of ESET Smart Security. Parameters here
will be used by all modules requiring connection to the Internet.
To specify proxy server settings for this level, select the Use proxy
server checkbox and then enter the address of the proxy server into
the Proxy server: field, along with the Port number of the proxy
server.
If communication with the proxy server requires authentication,
select the Proxy server requires authentication checkbox and enter
a valid Username and Password into the respective fields. Click the
Detect proxy server button to automatically detect and insert proxy
server settings. The parameters specified in Internet Explorer will be
copied.
NOTE: This feature does not retrieve authentication data (username
and password), it must be supplied by you.
Proxy server settings can also be established within Advanced update
setup (Update branch of the Advanced Setup tree). This setting
applies for the given update profile and is recommended for laptops,
as they often receive virus signature updates from dierent locations.
For more information about this setting, see Section 4.4, “Updating
the program”.
5.2 Import and export settings
Importing and exporting configurations of ESET Smart Security is
available in Advanced mode under Setup.
Both import and export use the .xml file type. Import and export are
useful if you need to backup the current configuration of ESET Smart
Security to be able to use it later. The export settings option is also
convenient for users who wish to use their preferred configuration of
ESET Smart Security on multiple systems ‑ they can easily import an
.xml file to transfer the desired settings.
5.2.1 Import settings
Importing a configuration is very easy. From the main menu, click
Setup > Import and export settings, and then select the Import
settings option. Enter the name of the configuration file or click the ...
button to browse for the configuration file you wish to import.
5.2.2 Export settings
The steps to export a configuration are very similar. From the main
menu, click Setup > Import and export settings.... Select the
Export settings option and enter the name of the configuration file.
Use the browser to select a location on your computer to save the
configuration file.
5.3 Command Line
ESET Smart Security’s antivirus module can be launched via the
command line – manually (with the “ecls” command) or with a batch
(“bat”) file.
The following parameters and switches can be used while running the
On‑demand scanner from the command line:
