The last step in the Typical installation mode is confirmation of the
installation by clicking the Install button.
2.2 Custom installation
The Custom installation is designed for users who have experience
with fine‑tuning programs and who wish to modify advanced settings
during installation.
The first step is to select the destination location for the install. By
default, the program installs into C:\Program Files\ESET\ESET Smart
Security\. Click Browse... to change this location (not recommended).
Next, Enter your User name and Password. This step is the same as
in the Typical installation (see page 5).
After entering your User name and Password, click Next to Configure
your Internet connection.

If you use a proxy server, it must be correctly configured in order for
virus signature updates to work properly. If you don't know whether
you use a proxy server to connect to the Internet, leave the default
setting I am unsure if my Internet connection uses a proxy server.
Use the same settings as Internet Explorer and click Next. If you do
not use a proxy server, select the corresponding option.
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, a valid user name and password must
be entered, granting 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.
