  • Download a free trial version of Ewido security suite
  • Install Ewido security suite
  • When installing, under "Additional Options" uncheck..
  • Install background guard
  • Install scan via context menu
[*]Launch Ewido, there should be an icon on your desktop, double-click it.
  • The program will now open to the main screen.
  • When you run ewido for the first time, you will get a warning "Database could not be found!". Click OK. We will fix this in a moment.
[*]You will need to update ewido to the latest definition files.
  • On the left hand side of the main screen click update.
  • Then click on Start Update.
  • The update will start and a progress bar will show the updates being installed.
    (the status bar at the bottom will display "Update successful")
[*]Exit Ewido.
[*]DO NOT SCAN YET.
[/list]If you are having problems with the updater, you can use this link to manually update ewido.
