ESET Smart Security and ESET NOD32 v3.0 Release Candidates available

In the current RC you can simply open the GUI and from the Setup click one button and disable all the protection . It is not done and if it depended on me I wouldn't implement such thing because:
- it is risky (many people claim to know what they are doing but...)
- generally ESET's scanner doesn't slow down such things
- it will scan them and you'll be protected

This is what I think . Perhaps you can mail them as a suggestion to betasupport[at]eset[dot]sk and they may include such thing in a future release

 

Will NOD32 version 3 be able to be run on Windows 98/ME ?

 

My guesses are NO , it won't be able to run on Win 9x OS . Otherwise they should have made 9x version of the RC.
These are very old operating systems and their support and future developement was ceased a long time ago first by Microsoft and later by other vendors . Most AV companies at the moment (and especially the big names) stopped supporting Win 9x long time agon .

 

I'm using NOD32 V3 now,I have found many changes(eg GUI and have fixed some bugs in nod32 V2.7),but when I click "OK" in advanced program settings,I feel no response brief.

 

Have used Nod32 V3 for a couple of weeks now.
I must say I'm impressed. All is working stable and quick.
Mail spamfilter is filtering out 95% of the spam.
I will certainly remain a sattisfied customer

in this topic, i have seen that the final version of eset smart security should be available at the latest 30 days after the Release candidate version ?

The RC version were available the 21th of September...

Do you have an idea of the marketing date of ESS ?

Thanks

 

What email program are you using with the spam filter? Also, I just installed SpamFighter this morning. How do you think the two of these compare?

TIA for any and all input!

 

The only thing I have observed is that the Windows Security Center in XP Pro sometimes does not "see" the firewall. The firewall is always working however. A reboot solves the problem at least on my machine.

 

This may help you resolve your Security Center issue:

It is about v2 of NOD32 but will do the same for ESS

 

Thanks but that is not the problem. It only does not see the firewall from time to time. It may have to do with WinPatrol Plus and the order of loading programs. I am not concerned since the firewall is working.

 

@Bunkhouse Buck

Just try it . It doesn't hurt and cannot make bad to your computer

 

I do not agree that is the proper solution based on having used computers since 1971. A better solution in Windows XP Pro is to stop and restart the security center service in Administrative Tools/Services. That works for me.

 

Just disable the "security center" and you're good to go.
I haven't figured out what it's supposed to help me with, other than using even more resources..

 

There is a much easier solution and you don't need to disable it (although I agree it is not of much help unless you are new to computers). Just stop the Security Center service and restart it. It should now work properly.

 

But ESS has problems with some kind of lan-enabledd progs, with ipsec-clients and for me with some kind of progs with little files aon lan too.
therefore it would be very nice, to disable the nod-modules on a quick way.

 

I've been using RC1 for a couple of weeks now.
Very sattisfied. All is working properly.
I'm missing one feature in the anti-spam module: I've created several differant maps in my inbox in Outlook express. I'm using rules to replace incoming mails to the right map. I notice that the anti-spam module only filters out the spam in the root of Inbox... the submaps are not checked.
Or an I overlooking a setup-feature

Just installed the beta on my machine. So far so good. Question, are there any advanced settings to setup that are written up in a guide similar to Blackspear's yet?

Thanks.

 

The default settings are OK . Read the Help file (press F1 while the GUI is opened)

 

Yeah I pretty much already did that. I ended up just going through everything and changing it to my liking. There were some things that were not enabled, so I just went ahead and enabled them.

 

Hi!

Thanks for letting me know.
If you want a configuration , you can see this one (the one I use actually):
Download from here

After download , open Eset Smart Securiry's UI , select Tools -> Import/Export settings . Choose Import and navigate to the xml file . Confirm and you are done

 

Is there a similar XML file for just the AV? Would be nice.

 

Make sure you also create a XML file with your personal configuration for future use. Just export and save. It includes your user/pass etc.
When re-installing......just import and you're up and running.

 

I'll create one for you . You'll have it in 20 minutes

 

You are the best, just downloaded it! Thanks a million.

 

You are welcome
