Installing Symantec Corporate Antivirus

 

1.      At the Welcome screen, click Next.

2.  At the License Agreement screen, choose to accept terms in the license agreement and then click Next.

3.       Next, the Mail Snap-In Selection screen is displayed. Follow the instructions on the screen. If you use Outlook, you should select the Microsoft Exchange/Outlook option. Click Next to continue.

4.      At the Destination Folder screen, click Next if you want to install Symantec AntiVirus in the default directory. (We recommend using the default if possible.)

If you want Symantec AntiVirus to be installed in a different location, use the Change button to choose a new location before clicking Next.

 

5.      Off campus users choose Unmanaged as the Network Setup Type. Then, click Next to continue

6.      For Initial Settings, make sure that the File System Realtime Protection box is checked. This option allows your system to be scanned "on the fly" as files are accessed. Click Next to continue.

 

7.      For Run Options, make sure that the Run LiveUpdate box is checked. Then, click Next to continue.

LiveUpdate is a program that updates the virus definition files to the latest version. These are the files that Symantec AntiVirus uses to scan your computer for viruses.

8.      Click Install to start the installation.

9.      When the program has been installed, you will see the LiveUpdate icon in the taskbar. Click it to start LiveUpdate. (The wizard screen may still be displayed even though all the files have been installed.)

 

10. When the Welcome to LiveUpdate screen is displayed, click Next to download the latest virus definitions.
