4.3.1 Update setup
Update setup options are available from the Advanced setup tree (F5 key) by clicking Update > Update. This section
specifies update source information, such as the update servers and authentication data for these servers. By default,
the Update server drop-down menu is set to Choose automatically to ensure that update files will automatically
download from the ESET server with the least network traffic.
For updates to be downloaded properly, it is essential that all update information is entered correctly. If you use a
firewall, please make sure that the program is allowed to communicate with the Internet (i.e., HTTP communication).
The currently used update profile is displayed in the Selected profile drop-down menu. Click Profiles... to create a new
profile.
Authentication for update servers is based on the Username and Password generated and sent to you after purchase.
By default, no verification is required, i.e., the Username and Password fields are left empty.
