Additional options
Activating Safe'n'Sec
Activations is started after copying program files on your computer. Without activating, Safe'n'Sec doesn't work and your computer is not protected against threats and attacks.
You can refuse activating the program during installation and do it when Safe'n'Sec is started for the first time. To do this press the Exit button.
The program must be activated during the installation or when it is started for the first time.
| Attention! Without activation, Safe`n`Sec will not work! |
During activation, your copy of Safe`n`Sec must be registered on a special Activation Server to assign the program to the owner. All program functions will work only after activation. To activate Safe`n`Sec, you should provide the following data:
- Product serial number is an alphanumeric code included into the Safe`n`Sec distribution kit.
- Computer hardware code is a numeric code that is automatically generated by the activation utility based on your hardware configuration.
A detailed discussion of each step of Safe`n`Sec activation is provided below.
| Attention! To activate the product, you should have an Internet connection! This is required to connect to the Safe`n`Sec Activation Server. |
When you start the program for the first time, you will see the welcome dialog box of Safe`n`Sec activation (see Fig. 1).
To start activation, click Next.
In the next dialog box, please select the activation method: automatically or manually.
To activate the product manually, you should register the product on the Activation Server by yourself. Connect to the Activation Server and enter the Safe`n`Sec serial number and hardware code in the special fields. The hardware code will be provided if you select manual activation. Using the customer data (serial number and hardware code), the Activation Server will generate the activation number. Enter the activation number in the corresponding field in the activation dialog box.
If you select automatic activation, the activation utility will register your copy of the product on the Activation Server. You will have to manually specify only the product serial number that you received together with the program installation package. This option is recommended. Below, we discuss details of automatic activation.

Fig. 2. Specifying the Safe`n`Sec serial number
The activation utility will automatically generate the computer hardware code and send it to the Activation Server together with the serial number you specified.
The activation number generated by the Activation Server will be automatically sent to the activation utility on your computer. After this, the Safe`n`Sec copy is activated and you can start working with the product.
Finishing setup
This dialog box informs you that installation of Safe`n`Sec has been completed and you need to restart your computer to register all program services and run proactive protection. It is recommended to select Yes, I want to restart my computer now and click the Finish button.
How to know whether the program is running
When the program is running, the icon  is displayed in the system tray. This means that all applications running on your computer are controlled by Safe'n'Sec.
Important!
If you selected not to display the program’s icon in the system tray, nothing will visually indicate the program’s performance. To check whether the program is running, open the Management Console (Start->Programs->Safe`n`Sec) and see the Activity Control status in the Status section. |
The program smoothly runs in background mode, not interrupting your work with other applications. Alerts from Safe`n`Sec are displayed only if you need to make a decision. For instance, the program displays an alert upon detection of an application whose activity is considered malicious.
As a rule, if the program is disabled, you will see a popup window above the icon. The Safe`n`Sec icon in the system tray also indicates the program status – a red cross appears when the application is disabled. Thus, you will always know for sure whether the program is running or not.
