How do I find which files Nod32 has "cleaned"?

This is the first time I have experienced this problem. Tonight I ran an "on demand scan" with Nod32. I chose the option of "Scan and Clean", but the quarantine box was ticked (it is also ticked in Amon). After running a scan of all files, this is what came up

Ok, I looked in the quarantine folder. There was nothing there. I looked in the threat folder. There was nothing there. I reviewed the scanner log. There was nothing there.
How am I to find out what Nod32 cleaned? I trust Nod32, but I do like to have some control over what is being deleted.
I know that I can run System Restore to time prior to this scan and rescan using the scan only option, but this seems like going to a lot of trouble. Am I misunderstanding how Nod32 works? I am using Nod32 v. 2.51.26 and have applied Blackspeare's setting.

 

Do you have a folder called infected? C:\Program Files\ESET\infected

If not, please create one.

Could you please post a copy of your scan log, as it should show what was deleted.

Cheers

 

There was no infected folder. (I understood it was only created when there was an infection). Anyway, pursuant to your instructions, I created one. How do I post as copy of my scan log?

 

Did you/do you use a Registry Cleaner?


To paste a log, do the following:

1. Right click on a scan log

2. Click on details

3. Right click

4. Click on "copy all"

5. Then paste directly here.

I sometimes use Tweaknow Reg Cleaner. When I try to copy the scan log, Nod32 Control Center locks up. Using Windows Task Manager shows "program not responding." I think it is perhaps because the scan log is so big?
As I stated in my first post, I scrolled down thru the scan log (it took almost as long as the scan did in the first place). I could find not red entries, nothing noting a threat.

 

I think you have ripped parts of NOD32 from the registry.

It also sounds like you have "list all files" ticked within the manual scanner.

I don't think Nod32 (parts of) have been ripped from the registry, but you are correct I do have list all files ticked with the manual scanner. Should they not be?

 

I have talked to a specialist and we would disagree with you on this point. I have seen registry cleaners cause sooooo much havoc that I no longer touch them, as well as several studies regarding their effectiveness and or damage (Fred Langa included) have come to the same conclusion as well.

Not required, makes looking for a particular line almost impossible.

Thanks for your help Blackspeare. I have uninstalled Nod32, deleted the folder Eset in Program Files, and re-installed Nod32. Hopefully, nothing bad was deleted (in the sense that it effects the computer). If if does I will do a system restore in a couple of days and re-run the scan this time leaving list all files unticked.

 

You are welcome.

Cheers

 

I am running NOD32 version 2.70.9 beta and have neither a "quarantine" folder or "threat" folder or an "infected" folder in my computer. Am I supposed to have each of these named folders? If not, which ones should I have and should I create them and place them where?

Thanks,

Aha, it is done for me when the need arises.
