Section A: Obtaining the Installation File

Download the file here.

You will be prompted for a username and password. Enter your username@cabrini.edu (eg. abc123@cabrini.edu) and domain password. Having trouble logging in? Reset your expired password by setting up and then using the Password Reset Wizard.

When prompted, click the Save button and choose your Desktop.

Section B: Installing the software

If you've already installed Symantec recently, you should have a yellow shield in the bottom right corner of your screen, near the clock.  If so, double-click this yellow shield icon and run LiveUpdate, then scroll to the bottom of this page and click Next.

Otherwise:

If you have a competing antivirus software, uninstall it:

• Go to the Start menu, click Control Panel, click Add or Remove Programs, and wait for the list to populate. 
• Search the list for other antivirus products, such as old versions of Symantec, McAfee, Norton Internet Security, and the like.
• Click any of those entries and click the Uninstall or Remove button.  Follow the prompts to uninstall such programs and restart the computer if prompted.

Then:

• Locate the installation file ("WindowsSymantec(32-bit)") in your Downloads folder or your desktop. Double-click the file to run it.
• If a User Account Control screen appears, press Allow or Continue.
• The Symantec Endpoint Protection install will take several minutes to complete and will run a LiveUpdate automatically.  Wait for this to finish.  Symantec may prompt you to restart your computer.
• In the bottom right corner of your screen, near the clock, you should see a yellow shield icon .   If you don't see a yellow shield at all after restarting and waiting 5 minutes, Symantec probably did not install correctly. Call the ITR office at 610-902-8366 for assistance or stop by our office in Founders Hall 108.

If you have more than one computer or run more than one operating system on your computer(s), return to the antivirus setup page to get instructions for installing Symantec Endpoint Protection for other operating systems.
