[KB2771] Disable the Antispam feature in ESET Windows home products

Solution

Disabling Antispam will reduce your computer's protection

We do not recommend that you disable Antispam. Doing so will reduce your computer's protection level.

If you disable Antispam, your ESET product will display an orange status indicating a limited protection level. Re-enable Antispam as soon as possible.

  1. Open the main program window of your ESET Windows product.

  2. Click Setup → Internet protection.
