Last two cold boots I have received dialog from Windows that my anti-virus is outdated. Sure enough, I look at the sigs and the latest shows 2859. I then update through the app and it reloads to the current sig. Any ideas??

Upgrade to ESET NOD32 3.0


1. Download fresh new version of ESET NOD32 Antivirus 3.0 from
http://www.eset.com/download . Make sure that you choose the correct version.

2. Uninstall your current 2.7 version from Control Panel
3. Reboot the computer when prompted
4. Delete manually this folder:

for XP:
- C:\Program files\ESET

5. Reinstall your ESET software using the file you downloaded in step1 . Use typical install. :thumb:

Why would I update to v3 with all the problems that are being incurred? Haven't heard/read too many good reports YET!

{QUOTE-> Haven't heard/read too many good reports YET! <-QUOTE}

Just because you haven't read some , it doesn't mean there aren't any.
If you just read , you'll never install any product .

3.0.650 has reached some very good stadium and is OK to be used , IMO . I have upgraded all my computers to v3 . Have started to upgrade some clients , too - all is fine.

If you have any kind of problem with v3.0 , contact ESET Support and you'll have it sorted out. :thumb:
