Nod32 v.3.0.563

[GAN]

Seems like version 3.0.563 is available for download now at www.eset.com and this time it's actually version 3.0.563 as well. It's nice to see new versions are released fast to solve bugs, but Would be nice to know what is fixed. Is there any release notes available somewhere?

Seems they can't even get the date right. .563 was released today.....Nov 9th..............not the 6th

[GAN]

Seems like the event log is still filled with errors when connecting to windows shares. I guess it's not the most important bug to fix, but really annoying since it generates a lot of errors pretty fast.

They probably did a copy/paste and forgot to change the date. I guess it's not a big deal.

Yeah, probably how the coding errors happened too.

[GAN]

-{ Quote: "Yeah, probably how the coding errors happened too." }-
lol, well let's hope not....

Should give eset some credit for fixing the bugs fast though even if they released software that many would say is a unfinished product. All software contain bugs.....it's not like eset is the first one to release a product with bugs that should have been fixed before the final release.

[nodyforever]

General conclusions:

This this version visualizing perfectly the images and the sites already do not give mistakes because of delaying any time to loading.

Alone I thought like the previous version that it was happening the same thing is when I import in my options the GUI it is not much crazy in the term in which the window or it is completely white or does refresh sometimes but not at all of serious one I believe myself to be them what is much better than the previous one.

+1 point ;D

The near stage comes!

I think that ESET deserves a lot of credit. This last release is working like a charm. I just had it tested with Comodo's Firewall (v3.0.11.246 RC1)....they are working very well together. Well done ESET!:thumb: :thumb: :thumb:

[nodHead]

+1 ESET :thumb:

Thankyou. :D

Still getting multiple tagging with Office 2007 Outlook & XP SP2 ???

[pbmcmlxxi]

Indeed +1 it's getting better. I have now noticed regarding email scanning, that
using outlook 07 & Vista, with the option in NOD ticked for 'Append tag messages to received and read email - it is literally doing that!

Previous downloaded messages with out this ticked were normal i.e. no notifications as requested. With this option selected it now appends the notification to the bottom of my email i.e. 'Read'

When I now download a message and view it I get 2 notifications at the bottom of the email, I presume on 'Received' and one for the 'Read' :-\

[mert90]

I have v3.0.560 and i downloaded it from the web site but i am not sure wether i should uninstall the old version and install this or can i install this one over the old one? Thanks for the help in advance because im a little novice.

[poutine]

Hope this fixes the Outllook Express problem, because 3.0.560.0 did not work for me. I have 2.7 now and will wait for a few weeks feedback on here everyday :)

Curiosity got to me, i ghosted to a clean OS on my test PC, installed this latest 563, downloaded a torrent and opened Outlook Express to put it under a little strain , and "ping" it went and closed........... back to square one. >:(

[CtlAltDelete]

I bit the bullett and tried it too.

Working great so far, web images load fully now, no outlook issues.

Couple of things though.

In email settings I had to manually check Outlook to add it as an email client. It was in the http list but unchecked by default.
Same thing with IE7. It was in the list of browsers but unchecked by default.

[Katril]

well .563 has worked for me flawlessly.




As far as outlook express goes, the only noticeable problem is that Outlook does hang slightly before closing.


Other than that its a nice piece of software

congrats. But for me it still crashes Outlook Express when its put under strain from other apps running. still nowhere near good enough so back to 2.7 which doesnt crash anything at all, or maybe RC1 which also worked 100%

Possibly try unchecking OE (if checked) under Misc. email client integration. Mail is still scanned with http.

Thanks Bunkhouse, i still have it on my test machine, will try what you suggest, for now its the only way i guess. The integration really sucks still anyway, like i said before , " in outlook express it seems like the NOD32 tasbar item would rather not be there, its like it was invited but feels awkward sitting there and wants to go." ;D

I don't have it integrated as I had problems with beta and later as well. As you said, taskbar item doesn't seem to want to be there.

563 is crashing more in Outlook Express than the 560. RC1 didnt crash at all.... come on ESET read our posts here !!!!!! surely its not hard to remedy. 8)

That's not very encouraging news. :(

I'll stay with V2.7 and wait for ESET to stomp on a few more bugs before I risk V3 or ESS trial again.

Hi.
OK i had to admit defeat with the email scanner in Outlook Express, and thanks to all of you who suggested turning it off, i have permanently!!!

You know... the old adage "if it aint broke dont fix it" springs to mind with the Version 3's release.
The way emails were scanned in version 2.7 was flawless, seamless and invisible (apart from the nice scanner pop up) why oh why did they have to mess that all up ?
The new Icon that gets plonked in OE is ugly and gets in the way, now... i could just about live with the daily crashes for the time being, but why oh why not give us an option to turn off the ugly icon and still be fully protected, its an eyesore. I dont need to get into the options there, once its setup its setup!!
What i would really love however , is a return to version 2.7's scanning method. That would make my day ;)

And back once more to 2.7 , i go.......... This is funnnnn, thank god i use Ghost. ;) i'll stick with V.2.7 until my sub runs out Nov 2008 (hope i can use it til then !!)

[dnapzter]

i just have a little question

is this version having a function like the previous called AMON which searches almost all our files without being told to do so?

its a very nice function with the previous.

dunno if it is still present with the new release

btw, gratz to you. you made it

[Thiggy]

Uninstalled 2.70 AV only and installed 3.0.563 AV only on my XP Pro system.

-Bootups seemed slower.

-Once the XP Security Center alerted that NOD32 was installed, but that protection was turned off. It wasn't.

-Rebooted to so the Security Center would quit alerting about NOD32 being turned off which it did, but then I found NOD32 kernel running and no tray icon was present.

Uninstalled 3.0.563, cleaned folders and reinstalled 2.7. Happy and waitng.

Good idea , 563 is worse than the others IMO, Outlook Express crashed more with that than the previous ones. I dont think they could of even bothered testing it, i guess we are the new test team . ::)

[mert90]

i don't see why it is not working with you but i manage to run the EAV v3.0.563.0 at my computer flawlessly. Yes i admit that it is a little bit heavier and boot ups are definitely taking longer BUT this is because of the better protection compared to v2.7 against the viruses that can hide in boot up sections(at least i guess and hope it's that way). I also would wait a bit longer to upgrade to v3 but i couldn't however it ended up good for me so thanks ESET for their hardworking. Also you should give some credit to them because it is a developing program unlike many others(Symantec's Norton is a good example i guess).

[poutine]

I still have it on my test PC, and having tinkered with various settings, it crashes far less if i turn Perfect Disks PDAgent service to manual rather than automatic ! Dont know why but it seems to help.
Does anyone else having the "bing" issue run Perfect Disk to ?

@Mert90
Dont you think the Outlook Express integration is really awful though, like somethings not quite right in there ?
Not just the huge pointless bar but all of it ? For me ... Compared to 2.7's its terrible. Agreed its a developing program but i think it needs a complete rethink, at least as far as the integration goes.

[DavidCo]

PDAgent works fine with V2.7
;D

-{ Quote: "PDAgent works fine with V2.7

Yeh but what about V.3, i already know 2.7's ok.

[DavidCo]

Actually I have no idea what PDagent does. An answer to that might give a clue to the V3 problem.
I don't think it appeared before V7, so........

In fact some of the spikes (cpu) that have been reported may be caused by 'genuine' components of 'innocent' software that just happen to 'phone home' for one reason or another.
I will not buy Paintshop Pro now that it is in the Corel camp, for instance.

[Klaus_1250]

PDAgent is part of PerfectDisk, a Windows Defragger.

Looks like this allows the perfectdisk client to communicate through the network.

[reddice]

I tried PerfectDisk but it is way too slow. It uses way too many resources. I use Diskeeper which is light weight. I have no problems with Diskeeper and NOD 32 Version 3.0.563.

[spamyou]

I have Diskeeper as defrag, but nod v3 crashes my outlook express. My wife has a different setup (uses built in defrag), and nod v3 crashes her outlook express as well. I sometimes get the bing sound, sometimes it opens after a couple of tries (and manually closing crashed version in taskbar), but then hangs when I try to close it.

I am still running version 2.7 on both and will be until the bugs get worked out.

Thanks spamyou. Now i know its not Caused by Perfect disk. !
I didnt want a discussion on defraggers lol, i just wanted to know if maybe the component of Perfect disk could be causing the issue. PdAgent is just the scheduling engine of P.D , if you dont schedule defrags this can be set to manual safely, the reason being PDAgent accesses the drive every few seconds. Turn it off and it doesnt.

Seems like the Tech Eset guys still need to work on the cause of the "Bing" as its now so affectionately called. ;)
