detection of Potentially unwanted applications. Such
programs are not necessarily malicious, but can often
negatively affect the behavior of your operating system. These
applications are often bundled with other programs and may
be difficult to notice during the installation process. Although
these applications usually display a notification during
installation, they can easily be installed without your consent.
After installing ESET Cyber Security, you should perform a
computer scan for malicious code. From the main program
window click Computer scan and then click Smart scan. For
more information about On-demand computer scans, see the
