    (hope i translated it correct into english)

    when it crashed, the whole network locks up and ESET, and i can't connect to internet, and im forced to reboot.
    I have uninstalled, cleaned registry and files from HD for leftovers and reinstalled 4 times, and ESET service crash every time it scans.

    system is: XP Pro

    Could you confirm or deny that the problem persist when running a scan using ecls.exe from within the ESET installation folder?

    Hello. Im not sure if i understand what you mean running a scan using ecls.exe from within the ESET installation folder?

    I just tried doubelclicking the ecls.exe from the ESET install folder, and a DOS window popped up and closed after just a second.

    You'll need to run ecls.exe with the appropriate parameters as it's a command line scanner that needs some input information to run. You can run it from within Total Commander, FAR or another file manager, or simply from within the command window (Start - Run and type command. You'll need to navigate to the ESET installation folder in order to run a scan.)

    Please post here the information about installed modules (Help -> About) so that we know which exact version you're using.

    Hello,
    I've noticed that you have an older version of the "Antivirus and antispyware scanner" module installed. Could you please run a manual update to see if the latest version 1135 is downloaded? Then run an on-demand scan and let us know about the result.
