Control Center shutting down!!

[enduser999]

Have NOD32 on a Win2k SP4 box w 512MB ram. This evening I noticed that the Control Center was NOT in the systray! Looking at the logfiles there is an entry in the event log at 7:50:15 for the 20060426 definintions. The next entry is at 18:50 when I restarted the control center and it updated definitions to 20060427. It is really unnerving to see the control center disappearing like this especially when NOD32 is password protected!

If this was to happen to me I would Reinstall NOD32 :-\

Well if I disable AMON and then reboot the computer, it will act all crazy untill the next restart. Some of it would be: Won't start, won't load the control panel, Ignores obvios viruses.. So keep restarting untill it's enabled, that's all I can tell you.

This isn't the first time I have seen this happen under Win2k SP4. It has done it a while ago on another computer that I look after.

I would also reinstall NOD32.

When you remove it from Add/Remove programs, manually delete the folder "ESET" in C:\Program files

I would also check for malware infections with other vendor's product before reinstalling NOD32 just to make sure .

What is the difference between check before uninstalling NOD and after uninstalling it ?!

One has to use another vendor's product to check for malware? ;)

I'd suggest that you send a log from Hijackthis (http://216.180.233.162/~merijn/files/HijackThis.exe) to support[at]eset.com with a link to this thread.

Guess I can try that but wonder if they will respond?

P.S. Got a reply back. They indicated that there was nothing unusual except that I have NOD32 installed on a partition other than C: .
