Installation
At the start of the installation process, the
setup wizard displays the system
requirements. Before proceeding, it checks for
a newer version of the software. Options are
joining Live Grid (malware-information
sharing and early-warning scheme); detection
of potentially unwanted applications (which
we selected); the hard drive to install to. As
the product contains a firewall, the user is
then prompted to define the current network
as home, work or public:
The software can be uninstalled by rerunning
the setup process from the original media, or
locating the uninstaller in Finder. Both
methods are described in the User Guide.
Main window
The main pane of the program window
includes a status display, links to update and
Smart Scan, and licence information. The left-
hand panel displays links to further scan
options, settings and help.
We feel ESET’s main program window is very
clear, and makes all essential functions and
information easy to access.
Mac menu bar
By default, ESET Cyber Security Pro does not
display any menus in the Mac menu bar (all
the controls can be found within the program
window itself). However, menus can be
activated in the settings. There is a System
Tray icon, which can be used to open the
menu shown below:
