    Apparently one of the private beta testers is really enthusiastic about the product as indicated in the following comment in the Castle Cops venue:

    The beta is not public yet so the person is a beta tester I suppose.

    Looking at the screenshots Marcos posted in this thread should give you an idea
    of how close it is.

    All of these screenshots sound promising.

    However I hope that the "optimize" option will not determine if a file has changed or not by doing a MD5 on it (too much CPU intensive) or by adding ADS everywhere "a la" Kaspersky.

    I just hope that "optimize" will mean optimize ;)

    Take your time ESET, and cook your baby well :)

    Regards,
    gkweb.

    On this I can agree. No ADS tags.

    They are cooking (I hope not babies :cool:). They are cooking very well. They are cooking "more" than you'd expect. And, I suppose we'll get a lot for our rumbling tummies in comming weeks and months. Oh, I love to riddle....

    However, it's not done before it's done. Keep on working, lads.
    Cheers

    Well,honeestly there is nothing wrong with NTFS ADS... It's just a users panic...

    No panic. I've had them before. I don't want them again.

    One of the issues with the ADS tagging is that it does not play nicely with Windows system restore. Heavy fragmentation in a matter of days, and reports of restore points that will not work. That's one of the reasons that KAV lets the user decide whether to use them or not with their 5.0 series.

    RejZoR,

    In principle, I'd say you're right. But I've seen a handful of examples where the ADS's create issues for the user. They are really not anything aside from moving a data storage point from an external database - with associated lookup needs - to a item tightly coupled to the original file (the ADS). No more, no less.

    Given the downsides, and few, if any, relative upsides, I really don't know why they didn't just stop with a highly optimized iChecker solution. It would have created less problems overall.

    It seems everybody has only had bead experiences in the past ith ADS. Based on all the reports I've heard also hope that ESET don't use ADS for NOD.
    However if ESET were able to implement a type of ADS system that conformed to the usual standard of work that ESET produce I would be happy to use it becuase at that standard it would work properly and not cause problems.
    Also ESET are quite renouned for their lateral approach to problem solving. It would leave me totaly unsurprised to learn that they had develops some kind of completely new system for 'optimize scanning'

    The new EMON will also scan the incoming and outgoing email of the others emails client like Thunderbird, and the IMON is dedicated only to HTTP Scanner?

    I think that this will have more logic...

    EMON is a MAPI scanner, hence it will work only with MS Outlook. By contrast, IMON is a POP3/HTTP scanner working on Winsock level.

    I thought that you will put this kind of protection only in EMON...

    Thanks
