1. Installation AntiVir for Exchange
After downloading the installation package for AntiVir Exchange, please, start it on your Microsoft Exchange Mailserver. During the installation a window appears which allows you to choose the components you want to install. Please, make sure that the management console as well as the servercomponents are chosen here.

In order to enter the license file, you proceed as follows: Copy the file HBEDV.key which you have received via email into the installation directory of AntiVir Exchange. There is already a directory named “license” into which the file has to be saved. The directory “license” contains already a file named“oem.lic”, which has to remain there.
