Proxy Server Setup

   

The connection of your computer to the Internet can be mediated by a proxy server. The proxy server settings are defined by your ISP or network administrator.

 

The programs on your computer that access the Internet (such as Internet Explorer) need the proxy server address, port number, and access username and password (as defined by your ISP or administrator).

 

The NOD32 Update module is capable of retrieving this information from Internet Explorer. In some cases, however, a manual setup may need to be performed as follows:

  1. Click Update in the main NOD32 Control Center window.
  2. Click Settings
  3. Click Extended
  4. Select LAN/fixed line or dial-up (depending on the type of your internet connection)
  5. Click Setup in the Proxy server group
  6. Check the Use proxy server box
  7. Enter the IP address and port (if applicable)
  8. Enter the username and password (to access the proxy server)
    Note: The username and password above is not the same as the one provided by your NOD32 vendor.
  9. Click OK

Warning! After Update setup has been completed, perform a functionality test of access to the update server. Automatic update of the NOD32 system is vital to provide the maximum level of anti-virus protection.
