Re: Future Changes to EAV 3.0 And you're right.. LAME! So that'a Bug, not a feature request -- different thread.
Re: Future Changes to EAV 3.0 OK here's a few I suggested the support guy today via phone: 1. All Threats detected should be reported in the Threat Log (tab) of the RA regardless of which scan found it (it currently only shows threats caught by the Real-time scanning, not scheduled scans). 2. The Scan logs should report action taken if it was handled, currently if it cleans it, it doesn't tell you that it cleaned it, or how it cleaned it (cleaned or deleted). 3. The RA Server should email you any time there is a problem. IE: if there's an entry added to the Threat Log, Errors in the Event log, Protection Status Error levels, Lack of client check-in, etc. Currently it only emails "reports" at the server level. All real-time alerting comes from the Clients, which leads to needing multiple config files with different SMTP server settings for different offices, and is extra annoying for laptops that travel between multiple networks (and therefor usually need to use different SMTP servers on each one, some of which we don't know the configuration of). 4. A way to view a client's Quarantine, and make a task to empty it.
Re: Future Changes to EAV 3.0 ability to generate a boot CD, and a boot USB disk, to clean infected system files. should be low foot print, run on minimum system resources (128mb system, older cpus), and contain essential tools for repairing the system. or may be sold as a separate standalone product.
some improvments to NOD32 when cleaning viruses what about giving users the message "please restart the computer and run NOD32 in safemode" when you cant remove trojans and virues you should run nod32 in safe mode and meybe a restart to safemode, am sure microsoft made a option in windows to boot into safe mode on next restart msconfig > boot has it this will make LIFE eseier for everyone that gets cannot clean/delete the item and so on
Re: some improvments to NOD32 when cleaning viruses Because generally both v2 and v3 can clean infiltrations immediately (especially v3 which has cleaning malware improved) . This is when it comes to processes . When the situation is a bit more difficult (e.g. infected dll) , ESS/EAV/NOD32 will tell you that upon next reboot the malware will be gone , so generally no restart to Safe Mode is needed
Re: Future Changes to EAV 3.0 Request for corrections and new features in EAV 3.0 1) Rights Management Currently, configuration can be protected by password. Problem is each time you access the Advanced Configuration Tab, you are asked for type your password (even is main ESET windows is still opened). That is annoying. What I suggest is to log as ESET Admininstrator (once) during a whole session and possibility to log off. This is particularly interesting when you have a multi user PC, with 1 Admin and Serveral Users, and you are currently configuring ESET for a particular User Another feature, maybe, could be to apply change for current user (or selected user ) or to all users... 2) Mail client Downloading Progress bar (as in NOD32 v2.7) 3) Attachement management inside original mails... I noticed, using gfi.com mail testing, that dangerous threats were removed, but a strange attachement were remaining (still several bytes, impossible to save on the disk). In NOD32 v2.7, attachement were replaced by a text file explaining that attachement were removed... 4) Mail Tags enhancements... Sometimes, on html mails, tags do not appear... 5) Number of infected files, written on main windows, corresponds to the threats detected during current session... That is not clear... May be, adding history as : nb of threats detected since <date of last log cleanup> 6) Some translations are quite approximatives (noticed in french release) 7) hhtp client management and explaination are not sufficient... It is said that all application viewed as browser must be checked, the one that we don't want to be recognized as a browser, must be marked, using the cross... Well, but how to insert the cross (instead of the check mark ?)... That is not very clear in fact... Altough, the http "active" detection is not sufficiently documented... Regards Phil
Self-Defense Definitely agree. I saw a thread a while ago stating that "ekrn.exe" can be terminated by a simple batch file; I'm not sure if the self-defense has improved at all since then, but if it hasn't, I'd love to see it incorporated.
Re: Future Changes to EAV 3.0 I would like to see a command line option to force EAV to update its virus defs. We got one XP base image for our 5000+ workstations, after imaging we run a script. It would be nice if we could trigger to update with it.
Re: Future Changes to EAV 3.0 a option to disable Web access protection and email protection and not get the annoying red icon, useful if you have a program that isnt liking web access protection and if you use webmail, no need for email protection here is a bootscan picture of eset to make ;P http://bcheck.scanit.be/bcheck/hj-images/avast-scan.png i totaly agree it should have a bootscan option, meybe scan everytime pc boots option to, like if you want to scan MBR, system files and stuff
Re: Future Changes to EAV 3.0 How about a option to uninstall the software completly from within Remote Administrator Console
Re: Future Changes to EAV 3.0 here is another basic future request what about making md5 hash of the installation files and put the hash on the downloads page? makes it realy easy to verify! the version numb3r and if its real please
Re: Future Changes to EAV 3.0 Ideas: - Registry checking when On Demand Scan is triggered. - Cookie scanning / blocking / removal.
Re: Future Changes to EAV 3.0 We can set to accept program component update but nod32 never inform us of NEW version I suggest a pop-up when a new version is available.
Re: Future Changes to EAV 3.0 .xml based language translation? would be great if NOD32 / Smart Security gets support for it! +2
Re: Future Changes to EAV 3.0 Do not scan on backup Symantec had this, it shaved 2 hours off backup times on our file server.
Re: Future Changes to EAV 3.0 My biggest loss from v2 is the the ability to push the configuration.xml file along with the updates from the mirror... That was one great feature! Earlier on V2 i freshly installed a new client, pointed it to the mirror and the client got updated and configured itself with the correct config-file. - And the best part - if i changed the config, all clients got the new config next time they did an update. Now in v3 i have to first intall the client, then push the config, then update the client.....and if I do changes I have to push out a new config, but this only hits the computers online - which is about 65% of my total users, and I have to redo this every once in a while hoping to catch them all while connected with VPN and give them new configs.....which takes very long time, and makes this a lot more difficult to manage. So my biggest wish for V3 is the ability to distribute the config from the mirror.
Re: Future Changes to EAV 3.0 - Progress bar v3.0 - attachment image - Suggestion send sample user - add sigla database example: Threat Normal- detecting AV heuristics: Win32/Poision Threat User - Send sample user from Eset - sigla USS = user send sample Win32/USS.Poision I do not know if that is possible, but it was a way to prove that we are not sending samples of virus in vain. That is my suggestion Cheers
Re: Future Changes to EAV 3.0 I also have a ssl-pop3 and I would greatly appreciate if, finally, ESS/NOD32 be able to scan ssl-pop3...
Re: Future Changes to EAV 3.0 You are right on it techie007 these are exactly the same points I would like to make. I will add 5. When showing the current signature version for the network on the RA console (clients tab) give the cients a chance to update to the current version before considering it a warning situation. Currently as soon as the server has a new version everthng is red until all clients have updated. I think this is a bit over the top as you will always need to allow 15 mins for all cients to update to server version. Cheers Mike
