Resolving installation issues

You may encounter installation and post-installation issues. Web links can assist you to resolve these issues. They provide information about product installation and configuration details and are available for both 32-bit and 64-bit installers.

Sometimes it takes a long time during the launch of Mail Security console when .NET Framework 2.0 is installed on your system. If you are running .NET Framework 2.0, then it is recommended that you install SP1 of .NET Framework 2.0. However, you do not experience delay in launching Mail Security console on systems with higher versions of .NET Framework installed.

To reduce time during the launch of Mail Security console

Start Internet Explorer.
On the Tools menu, click Internet Options.
Click the Advanced tab, and then locate the Security section.
Uncheck Check for publisher's certificate revocation and then click OK.
After the installation is complete, check Check for publisher's certificate revocation.

Note:

The Check for publisher's certificate revocation option is set on a per-account basis.
