Once payment has been received, a case sensitive user name and password will be sent to the email address you provide. This user name is required to download your software.

Keep your license in a safe place. Print it and save it.

• Install the user name / password

You do not need to reinstall the software. Just follow the step-by-step instructions below on entering your new user name and password into the program, as well as a final step to ensure that the program is updating correctly. Please allow 24-48 hours after entering your new user name and password for the new expiration date to display.

1) Open the main program window by clicking the icon in the Windows notification area or by clicking Start → All Programs → ESET → ESET Smart Security/ESET NOD32 Antivirus.

2) Click 'Update' and then 'click User name and Password setup'. The License details window will appear.

Clear out the existing user name and password. Enter the new user name and password which were sent to you upon purchase of your license.
The following are EXAMPLES only:

User name: EAV-12345678

Password: abcde12345

3) Click OK and then click 'Update virus signature database' (make sure you are connected to the Internet).

4) If you are not prompted for your user name and password, they have been entered correctly. If you are prompted for your user name and password, click Cancel and repeat steps 2 and 3. Make sure you are logged in as administrator, or have administrator privileges.

NOTE: Please remember to enter your user name and password exactly as they are written. The user name and password are case sensitive and the hyphen in the user name is necessary. The password is ten characters long and all lowercase. If you are copying and pasting, make sure you don't select an extra blank space. Also, we do not use the letter L in passwords (use the number one (1) instead), a big 0 is the number zero (0), a little o is the letter o.
