    The browser displays the Worry-Free Business Security logon screen.
  2. Type your password and click Log On.
    The browser displays the Live Status screen.

Browser Cache
If you upgraded from a previous version of Worry-Free Business Security, web browser and proxy server cache files may prevent the web console from loading. Clear the cache memory on your browser and on any proxy servers located between the Trend Micro Security Server and the endpoint you use to access the web console.
SSL Certificate
Verify that your web server is functioning properly. If you are using SSL, verify that the SSL certificate is still valid. See your web server documentation for details.
Virtual Directory Settings
There may be a problem with the virtual directory settings if you are running the web console on an IIS server and the following message appears:
The page cannot be displayed
HTTP Error 403.1 - Forbidden: Execute access is denied.
Internet Information Services (IIS)
This message may appear when either of the following addresses is used to access the console:
http://{server name}/SMB/
http://{server name}/SMB/default.htm
However, the console may open without any problems when using the following address:
http://{server name}/SMB/console/html/cgi/cgichkmasterpwd.exe
To resolve this issue, check the execute permissions of the SMB virtual directory.
To enable scripts:
  1. Open the Internet Information Services (IIS) manager.
  2. In the SMB virtual directory, select Properties.
  3. Select the Virtual Directory tab and change the execute permissions to Scripts instead of none. Also, change the execute permissions of the client install virtual directory.
