    What ports need to be open for NOD32 to download updates automatically.

    I added a program rule under windows 7 firewall to allow all ports for egui.exe, but the thing still won't update for me. I have to restore windows 7 default firewall rules, then run update manually.

    I also set my windows firewall to block all outbound rules except ones with rules created. The only two programs that I need to give access to is firefox (done - 80,443) and nod32 for web scanning (never updates for some reason).

    Found the problem

    wrong application was getting internet access
    -egui.exe doesn't control updates

    oddly enough a file located in the x86 folder for 64-bit controls the updates
    ESET\Nod32 Anti-Virus\x86\Ekern.exe

    One more strange issue when using a custom firewall rule

    Amazon.com videos on demand for streaming movies give me this...

    I am not sure which one of these links will work so here is 3

    Any idea how I can see what ports need to be opened? This works fine when windows is using the default rules, but without some port controlling this I get this when using custom rules in windows 7 64-bit firewall.
