Not working again. A ping to the ESET update servers as well as attempting the update on two separate machines in two entirely different...
Whatever mechanism Avira is using for real-time scanning probably simply preempts whatever NOD32 relies on. It doesn't insinuate anything in...
I'm sure it's probably all right. If you want to be certain, try submitting to VirusTotal for an all-encompassing scan. Be wary of occasional...
I'm really not sure to be honest. If you want to really dive into the source of the problem, why not try bootvis? It'll reveal what precisely is...
Glad to be of help. :) -Steve
For troubleshooting purposes, you could try disabling the startup scan momentarily, rebooting, and then noting performance differences (then...
Yes, it is safe. It merely resets the default permissions for the Administrators/System groups for all registry keys on your machine (and file...
Hey Bigtand, Try this: 1. Download and install SubInACL from Microsoft. Install SubInACL in the default location. 2. If you are running...
If we can get it to expand, you may be able to use a utility like The Avenger to force overwrite the file without removing the drive. Jeff, don't...
Oh, he is remotely connecting? I see. Yeah, that's an issue. Of course, he could always initiate a burn of a boot CD remotely on her PC (with...
Yeah; I have used that boot CD to great success also. I would recommend giving it a shot if you can't scan via another PC. -Steve
Oh, don't worry about that if you aren't going to hook to another machine. It's important to be sure you can access all files before running a...
You can also hook the hard drive directly to another computer if you have a IDE/SATA to USB adapter and then perform a full offline scan. Be sure...
I have indeed done so. If I recall correctly, when I attempt to restart the service manually, it does work (at least the first time). However,...
No, I mean it would not negatively affect your situation if you were to remove those files. He asked if it was possible that he messed up a...
Hey ccomputertek, Typically the first one, though it most often occurs on XP machines in my experience. However, I have seen it on Vista...
Hey there ccomputertek, In case it's of any interest, while I'm certain your solution (manually reinstalling the epfwtdir/epfwwfpr drivers)...
No; the Norton/Symantec folders and registry keys have nothing to do with the ESET installation. It should be fine. -Steve
Biscuit, Same here. I have tried everything from resetting the LSP stack/Winsock registry keys to performing a full permissions reset with...
Reliah, Here are a few things to try that ought to (theoretically) fix the problem. 1) Disable Self-Defense in the ESET Advanced Options;...
Marcos, No offense, but I think the point Futurist may be trying to make is that you have to first convince people to purchase your software if...
Hey Futurist, Just after posting my last message, I was able--after repeatedly clicking the manual update link--to get ONE of the three...
Futurist, I am leaning toward the same conclusion regarding server issues. If this is indeed the case (and it sure seems to be so), it's pretty...
I have posted a single-time update solution in my thread about this same issue. I should certainly hope this problem is not caused by multiple...
An update on the situation: So in the absence of a real solution, the technician in me resorted to personally correcting the issue (at least in...
