Registering Your PCs

If you're using Active Security Monitor on a single PC, registration is encouraged but not required. However, if your PC is one of several on a home network, you must register each of the PCs on your network in order to take full advantage of the many features offered by Active Security Monitor. Registration is free and takes only a few moments.

Benefits of registration include:

Registering a Single PC

  1. Download and install the Active Security Monitor application onto your PC.

  2. Double-click the Active Security Monitor icon on your desktop to launch the application.

Registering a Home Network

  1. Download and install the Active Security Monitor application onto any one of the PCs in your home network.

  2. After Active Security Monitor is installed, you will see the Active Security Monitor icon on your desktop. Double-click this icon to launch Active Security Monitor.

  4. Click the Register Network button.

  5. When the Register Network drawer opens, enter your email address and your desired password. (Your password must contain at least seven characters, and is case sensitive.) You will use this same email address and password to register each computer in your home network.

  6. Click the Submit button after entering your email address and password.

  7. Launch your regular email program and look for an email message from Active Security Monitor (admin@activesecuritymonitor.com).
