Before you log in to F-Secure Web Console, check that JavaScript and cookies are enabled in the browser. You need to add the address of F-Secure Web Console ( to the Trusted sites in the Internet Explorer security options to make sure that F-Secure Web Console works properly. 5. Setup and configuration 5.1 Installation instructions Note: Before you install F-Secure Server Security or F-Secure and Server Security, uninstall any potentially conflicting products, such as other antivirus or server security software. To install the product, you need to log in with administrator-level privileges. Refer to the manual for detailed installation instructions. 5.2 Remote installation Remote installation with F-Secure Policy Manager is possible for F-Secure Server Security only. To deploy F-Secure and Server Security, you need to make the attended installation either locally or over the remote desktop connection. 5.3 Compatibility with F-Secure Policy Manager The product is not compatible with older versions of F-Secure Policy Manager. To administer the product with F-Secure Policy Manager, use version Upgrade installation You can upgrade F-Secure Server Security or F-Secure and Server Security from the previous versions of F-Secure products by running the setup program and following the installation instructions. You can upgrade the following product versions: F-Secure Anti-Virus for Windows Servers 9.0

7 F-Secure Anti-Virus for Citrix Servers 9.0 F-Secure Anti-Virus for Microsoft Exchange 9.0 or 9.10 F-Secure Server Security 9.20 or F-Secure and Server Security 9.20 or Refer to the manual for detailed upgrade instructions. Note: Upgrade or reinstall the product above similar PSB products are not supported. Uninstall PSB Sever Security or PSB and Server Security before installing this product. 5.5 Using pre-installed Microsoft SQL Server Microsoft SQL Server 2008 R2 SP1 Express Edition is distributed with the product and included in the product installation package. If you need to use F-Secure and Server Security with your own installation of Microsoft SQL Server, make sure that you select the Mixed mode in the Authentication mode page. To change the authentication mode after the installation, refer to the Microsoft SQL Server documentation. 5.6 Reconfiguration of Quarantine storage During the installation, F-Secure and Server Security is configured to exclude all its working folders from the real-time file scanning to prevent interferences with any operation of the scanning. If the location of the Quarantine storage folder is changed in future, you need to reconfigure the product to exclude the folder from the real-time file scan. Refer to the manual for detailed instructions on adding such exclusions. 5.7 Uninstallation instructions To uninstall F-Secure Server Security or F-Secure and Server Security, use Add or Remove Programs from the Windows Control Panel. Restart the server after uninstalling all the components. Note: Some files and directories may remain under the product installation directory (%ProgramFiles(x86)%\F-Secure), programs data directory (%ALLUSERSPROFILE%\F-Secure), and user s temporary directories (%TEMP%) after you uninstall the product. We recommend that you remove these directories and files manually. 6. Known issues 6.1 Installation and uninstallation Default F-Secure Policy Manager port can be busy on servers with Microsoft Exchange (CTS ) When installing F-Secure Policy Manager and F-Secure and Server Security on the same server, make sure that you specify the correct port number of the Policy Manager Server. If you did not specify the correct port number during the installation, you can change it later with F-Secure Web Console.

8 Admin.pub cannot be located during installation on Windows Server Core edition (CTS-69882) When installing the product on Windows Server Core platform, the Browse button in the Setup wizard is not functioning because the common Windows dialog is missing. As the workaround, you can enter the path to the admin.pub file manually. Entering full license key does not activate On Access Scanning and On Demand Scanning immediately (CTS-70470) When your evaluation version of the product expires and you enter the full license key, on-access and on-demand scanning may not be activated immediately and thus not provide full server protection. It may take up to half an hour before the product gets fully functional. In order to speed up the license activation process, you can restart FSGKHS service or reboot the server. Shifting evaluation license from one product to another is not supported You cannot register the evaluation installation of F-Secure Server Security with the full license key for F-Secure and Server Security or vice versa. If you want to purchase a license for different product, uninstall the evaluation product first. 6.2 Virus and Spyware Protection Scanning big folders does not disinfect found malware if scanning is interrupted (CTS-68901) When a manual scan task that was started from the Web Console is interrupted, the admin-defined actions may not take place for found malware or spyware items. You need to run the manual scanning again and wait until it is completed for the actions to take place. Quarantined files are not restored with original file attributes (CTS-67794, CTS-67800) The advanced file attributes (as compression or encryption) as well as symbolic link information are not preserved when a file is placed to the quarantine. Therefore, when the file is restored from the quarantine, it does not get all original attributes back. If the file had originally any of the advanced file attributes set, you need to restore them manually after restoring the file from quarantine. EFS encrypted file cannot be scanned via scheduled scanning (CTS-88303/CSEP-221) Scheduled scan failed to scan an encrypted file with eicar.com inside and returns the error "file cannot be opened". There can be many users on server and every user can have own encrypted files. To scan those files, scanning must run with every user credentials which is impossible. Workaround is to use manual scanning for those files. 6.3 DeepGuard DeepGuard installation requires Microsoft Windows 2003 Server reboot If the product is installed with DeepGuard protection component on Microsoft Windows 2003 Server platforms, you need to restart the server to finalize the installation. DeepGuard 4 does not work on Windows Server bit

9 The 64-bit version of Windows Server 2003 does not include upgraded driver support routines of Microsoft's PatchGuard, which prevents kernel modifications. This makes this specific version of Windows incompatible with DeepGuard. If you are using the 64-bit version of Windows Server 2003, we recommend that you upgrade your operating system to benefit from our award winning DeepGuard technology. 6.4 Browsing Protection Change in Browsing protection settings may look ineffective due to caching Sometimes it may seem that a change in Browsing protection settings is not applied, because the browser finds the page content from the cache. Use Ctrl-F5 to ignore the cache and reload the content. Browsing protection search results Browsing protection does not show safety ratings on search result pages that use HTTPS. 6.5 Web Traffic Scanning Web Traffic Scanning does not handle encrypted traffic The current version of NIF-based Web Traffic Scanning cannot handle the content of encrypted network traffic, e.g. HTTPS protocol. Web Traffic Scanning causes download speed to decrease (CTS-90775/SPT-255) In some cases, the download speed is affected by Web Traffic Scanning resulting in slow download speeds. 6.6 Web Console Manual Scanning does not allow to scan mapped network drives/shares (CTS-70572) When you log in to Web Console, it does not load the full user profile, so you cannot scan a network drive or share from the manual scanning page. Scan network drives/shares with Virus and spyware scanning menu from F-Secure icon in the system tray or with the Scan Folder for Viruses menu from Windows Explorer. Internet Explorer 8 may show the security warning on the login page (CTS-70956) If the session expires, the Web Console returns to the login page automatically. When this happens, Internet Explorer 8 may show the security warning about content that may be delivered using nonsecure connection. You can ignore this warning. Web Console might delay on refreshing the page automatically Sometimes after you change and save a new setting (for example, Language of the user interface), there may be a few second delay while the Web Console tries to automatically refresh the page. 6.7 Cluster environments

10 Messages may not be scanned when Exchange is moved from one cluster node to another (CTS-62925) When Exchange cluster groups are moved from one node to another while the product is running on Active-Passive cluster environment, F-Secure Anti-Virus for Microsoft Exchange service can be down for a short time. While the service is down, some messages may not be scanned on the transport level. However, all messages and attachments are scanned without interruptions on the storage level. Incorrect quarantine statistics are shown when Web Console is open on the passive node (CTS ) Quarantine and other product statistics are not updated on the passive node as some of the product services are down or suspended. Therefore, when you connect to the Web Console on the passive node, the product status and statistics are not shown correctly. We strongly recommend that you connect to the Web Console using the name or IP address of the cluster instead of the name or IP address of the cluster nodes. 6.8 Disclaimers Disclaimers are not added to messages release from quarantine (CTS-67265) Disclaimers are not added to outbound mails that are manually released from the Quarantine, since it is not possible to say if they are really safe or not. Disclaimer is not added to TNEF mails with empty body (CTS-70123) Disclaimer is not added to TNEF encoded mails with empty body that have no text and no attachments. This problem occurs only on Microsoft Exchange Server Disclaimer is not added to mails if sender/recipient is in the list of trusted senders/recipients (CTS-70124) If the sender or recipient is included to the Trusted Senders or Trusted Recipients list, the disclaimer is not added to the message. 6.9 Quarantine Recipients are not listed for quarantined attachments that are blocked in real-time (CTS-73434) If malicious or disallowed attachments are blocked during real-time scanning in the Exchange store, they are listed in the Quarantine Query without the name of the corresponding recipient mailbox where they have been blocked. However, the information about the mailbox that contains the malicious or disallowed attachment can be found in the product alerts. 7.
