Security Level
First you have to decide which security level you want to use. A security level which
is too high might cause a dysfunction of some system functions. Using a security
level which is to low you run the risk that not all accesses to your computer are
blocked.
In general, we can say: In case the PC is not connected to a local network and no
network-compatible device (e.g. network printer) is located near the PC, the security
level can be “High”. That means the computer is invisible in the network. Furthermore
connections form outside are blocked and flooding and port scan are prevented.
This is the default setting after the installation of the Avira Premium Security Suite.
In case the PC is located in a network environment or the PC should access to
network devices like e.g. network printer, the security level should be set on
“Medium”. “High” might block the network printer or not recognize it as the firewall
does not know that a printer is available.
Please, proceed as follows:
•
Start the Avira AntiVir Control Center
You can start it by a left double click on the umbrella symbol. The tray icon is located
in the task bar, down right next to the system time.
