The Installation Wizard Steps
Installing the software is easy. The Installation
Wizard guides you through the process. Depending on the speed of your
computer, the installation may take some time. Before you begin, make
sure that your computer is connected to the internet.
 |
If you have downloaded the
product, double-click the product package icon to run the Installation
Wizard. |

 |
If you have a CD, when you insert the CD
the installation should launch automatically. If not, browse to the
root folder of the CD and double-click autorun.exe or is2005.exe. |
Step 1: Language
Selection
Choose the language in which you prefer to install
the product. Click Next to continue.

The installation wizard gathers necessary
information about your computer and begins unpacking the software
files.
Step 2: License Terms
Review the license agreement. If you agree to the
terms, tick the "I accept the agreement" check box. Click Next
to continue.
 |
If you do not
agree to the license terms, click Cancel to stop the
installation. |

Step 3: Installation Directory
Choose the directory to which you want to install
the software. We recommend you use the directory suggested by the
Wizard. Click Next to continue.

The Wizard prepares the files for installation.
This may take a few minutes.
 |
You may be
asked to restart your computer. Select Restart Now and click Finish
to continue. If you select Restart Later, installation will
not continue until the computer is restarted. |
Step 4: Registration
The Installation Wizard will prompt you to
register online. Ensure that your Internet connection is active and
enter your subscription number in the field.
 |
If you have bought the product online, your
subscription number is sent to you by email.
If you have a CD, your subscription number
is printed on the back cover of the user manual.
|
Alternatively, you can choose to install the
software as a 30-day evaluation version, where you will not be asked to
enter a subscription number.
Click Next to start the
installation.

The Wizard connects to F-Secure servers to
validate your subscription before completing the installation.
Depending on the speed of your computer, the installation may take some
time.
 |
If other security software is detected on
your computer at this stage, the Wizard will try to remove it, since it
may interfere with the function of F-Secure Internet Security 2005.
|
 |
If the subscription number has been used
previously, the previous installations will stop working and the number
will be transferred to this installation.
|
Step 5: Reboot and Finalize
When the Installation Wizard has finished
installing, you still need to finalize the installation by restarting
your computer. Select Restart Now and then click OK
to finish the installation. If you select Restart Later,
installation will not be complete until the computer is restarted.

The Start-up Wizard
When your computer has rebooted, you will see
Start-up Wizard. The Start-up Wizard will check for new updates and
help you optimize F-Secure Internet Security 2005 settings through a
series of quick steps.
