    the file you download is Win32/Genetik virus family and detect by EAV heuristics
    install_flash_player.exe size is 90kb but orignal install_flash_player.exe size is 1.42mb
    download macromedia flash player from there own site
    install_flash_player(Firefox, Mozilla, Netscape, and Opera) v9.0.115.0
    h**p://fpdownload.macromedia.com/get/flashplayer/current/install_flash_player.exe
    install_flash_player_active_x(IE) v9.0.115.0
    h**p://fpdownload.macromedia.com/get/flashplayer/current/licensing/win/install_flash_player_active_x.exe

    Don't download from unknown sites and don't post links to possible malware in screenshots here on the forums.

    I know where to go to get the codecs genuine, but you for your attention.

    What is here in this topic and what is at stake ... and if they had read the previous answers had seen that I was to show that v3 not mete files in quarantine but simply removes the malicious code of the same, with this in desktop as garbage.


    As you can see the HiTech_boy advised me to try the v2 to see if it happened .... to my surprise the unexpected happened.


    The v2 not left any part or trace of the file on the desktop that was the place where they had this file as a destination even with their definitions in default mode.


    One question: The v3 has no " display warning windows"?


    Sorry not happen again

    Finally discovered ... The problem is not the ESS/EAV/NOD32 but Firefox, it will download the file but...ESS/EAV/NOD32 not delete the file created on the desktop, thereby generating a file is useless "without malicious code"



    What will be the reason for ESS/EAV/NOD32 not put in quarantine and unable to delete the files through Firefox?



    Anyone Ideas?

    Look, when passive mode is enabled, then file is checking on the fly during downloading. If active mode is enabled, then file is downloaded only for scanner and after scan is forwarded to final application. But when file has got more than 2 MB or his downloading is running longer than 2 minutes, then passive mode will be enabled (in v2 it was).

    For PDF files you can use PDF Download plugin and I think that loading isn't very slower than in passive.

    NOT a solution, and it also happens with Opera 9.5 beta, ESS terminates the connection but the program is still on the download folder, just like the pictures shown here by nodyforever. If it is a zip or rar then the compressed files are empty, but still downloaded..

    BUT (it is very important) even though you see the files downloaded in your download folder , can you run them afterwards ? Does EAV still detect them even after connection is terminated ? Are they full files ?

    Because in nodyforever's case the files that are left are just ... browser cache which Firefox doesn't clean.

    My thesis was again by water below once more.

    Version 2 has shown once again that it has no problem in removing any part of the downloaded file in which site is, whether on the desktop or in the cache of the browser in this case is Firefox.



    Picture 1

    -- Download file
    -- Popup - Threat Detected - win32/Genetik
    -- No copy to quarantine
    -- Close popup



    Picture 2

    -- Popup - Threat Detected - win32/Genetik
    -- Warning - Click Yes


    Picture 3

    -- Popup - Threat Detected - win32/Genetik
    -- Download Error - click OK
    -- Detected part file cache Firefox
    -- They can see that the files no longer appears on the desktop?
    -- Close Popup


    Image 4

    -- Popup - Threat Detected - win32/Genetik
    -- Close Popup



    Image 5

    -- Conclusion: No parts Desktop files and cache Firefox.




    Win Xp Sp2 - Firefox 2.0.0.12 - NOD32 2.70.39 - Default settings

    Well NO, you can't the files are not readable... but the question raised was that NOD 2.7 was able to eliminate all the threat or just disconect the browser even before it has downloaded anything, where NOD 3.0 or ESS is not, and sometimes there is a leftover in the download cache... and If I'm not mistaken we are not pleased with that poor cleanup result. (I know I'm not compared to old NOD).
    Still, if all web traffic is rerouted internaly thru Eset's shiny new proxy... ¿how come there is a cache leftover when the web filter detects a threat and terminates the connection? Even if you don't run in active mode, if eset gives you the "Conection Termiated" flag, there should be nothing downloaded, shouldn't it??
    Cuold it be that the web filter should be set to the maximum clean level??

    Normal Download: passed

    Forced Download: passed



    ESS/EAV 3.0.642 - Blackspear settings - exepct No active mode - Cleaning Level - No Cleaning "Display warning Popup"


    Normal Download: passed

    An important Update: setting the Dessinfection parameters to the max, passes all the tests (using Eicar) and leaves no traces of anything on the machine, even with forced downloads...

    Tested in Opera 9.5 Beta and IE 7, on a Vista Ultimate system..
