Question re: NOD32

If Nod updates normaly and in the settings, server is set as "choose automatically", lan is set for broadband adsl/cable, you don't use a proxy server (make sure there isn't a tick) and lan servers connection is set to system account...

 

yup my set up is correct.

but i noticed theres no account name and password (maybe because i'm still at trial version)

 

Correct.

can somebody explain why my nod32 panel (right) become clear?

 

You must update your video card driver to solve that issue

 

my video card is nvidia ge force 7400

i can run my command conquerer 3 without any problem.

maybe my nod32 is corrupted

 

another question, why the other window of NOD32 is working fine. (see attached)

is there any effect on the efficiency of NOD32 on whats happening right now in my NOD32?

how can i check if this is my video card issue?

 

I believe the left side panel can be adjusted whereas the right side cannot. It has nothing to do with your video card. Just drag the left panel even with the right.

 

thats not my problem.

what im saying is the right side panel is clear (see my first attached picture), if you will check the second picture the right side panel is fine.

my concern is maybe my nod32 is corrupted and theres effect on security work.

 

To my mind it's a purely graphical issue. Happened to my also on several occasions for no apparent reasons. Reboot and all is fine usually. You can check that you're protected by looking at the different modules and whether the amount of files scanned still increases. But believe me there should really not be a security issue. With version 3 Nod finally gets a better interface as well.

 

Its likely a drawing issue. In this case this is more likely the fault of NOD32 itself rather than the drivers (but to be honest it could be the fault of either). There have been similar problems with BitDefender and BD team released an update to fix it some time back.

 

I just remembered, you could turn off the graphical interface all the way, then NOD will look like on your first picture. Think of it as a different skin that has nothing to do with function.

 

thanks guys for the reply!

i try to update my driver and it works

BTW, just check AV-comparative test and nod32 get low ranking compare to my pccillin IS 2007.

is it worth it to transfer to nod32 now that its ranking is low compare to my previous AV (Pccillin)?

 

Which AV-comparative test are you talking about?

NOD32 has first class heuristics which are better than anything else on the market right now. Speaking purely from a trojans/worms/backdoors perspective the latest AV-test test does show Trend to be better than NOD32, but when counting the entire spectrum of malware (viruses, script malware, other malware, polymorphics etc. along with the already mentioned types of malware), NOD32 is better than Trend Micro.

As such IMO Trend is pretty good as an AV, so personally I don't think you needed to switch to NOD32, but if you like NOD, then whats the problem?

BTW, what detail levels and resolution are you able to run Command and Conquer 3 on your GeForce 7400 gfx card?

 

http://www.pcmag.com/article2/0,1895,2135053,00.asp

resolution setting for my C&C3 1024x768. All terrain/water/model detail at high graphics presets.

regarding switching to nod32, starting last month when i experienced lots of URL pop-ups that hang my computer i beef up my computer security by adding superantispyware, spywareblaster and looking for NEW AV.

when i used nod32 and scan my computer it found 2virus w/c pccillin missed out. with that telling me that nod32 AV is pretty good

 

its back!!

the problem still exist after updating my video card driver!!

maybe its NOD32 drawing issue, hope they fix this problem.

 

Its best you send them an email about it, or else it may take longer to get fixed if it is a NOD32 issue.

 

I have never seen a case when a user updates the drivers and the issue continues.

If you contact ESET Support I am sure they will be able to be of more help than we are .

 

i already informed NOD regarding my problem. waiting for their reply.

thanks guys!

 

Further development of NOD32 v2 has been discontinued. We have never found any problems in the code re. graphics and divers have always been the culprit when there was a graphic drawing issue. You can either disable graphical interface or install ESS beta if you want.
