1. Installation
Before beginning installation, please close all running
programs. Since ESET Smart Security contains antivirus
and firewall components, we strongly recommend that
you remove any other antivirus programs or firewall
you might have installed on your computer to prevent
mutual conflicts. You do not need to disable or remove
the Windows firewall in Windows XP or Vista, as this
is automatically handled by the ESET Smart Security
installer. To take full advantage of the ESET Smart Security
system, you will need an Internet connection during the
installation process.
You can install ESET Smart Security from an installation CD
or from a file that you download from the ESET website:
www.eset.com.
1.2. Launching the installation
To launch the installer wizard, either do one of the following:
▪
If you install from the installation CD, insert the CD
into the CD-ROM drive and the installation should
automatically begin.
▪
If you install from a downloaded file, double-click the
file you downloaded to launch the installer.
After launching the installer and accepting the license
agreement, the installer will offer two types of installation.
▪
Typical – the most important parameters will be
configured during installation. These will be pre-set
to their recommended settings. This mode provides
comprehensive protection and is suitable for most
users.
▪
Custom – enables configuration of all advanced
parameters during installation.
This guide describes a typical installation.
