    I have tried to reproduce the same thing but I can't . It is working great with Security Center and always displays correct information (no matter how and how much I disable the protections). The onliest problem I can see under Vista is that it reports that v3 is installed (not v4) but this is known issue

    BTW - I am currently testing EAV v4 , not ESS

    Hello,

    Try resetting the Windows Security Center per the instructions in this message thread. Does that make any difference?

    Regards,

    Aryeh Goretsky

    I get this warning in the in center as well as the warning in the system tray.Every time I restart same senario. I had to tell security center not to notify or display icon to shut it up.

    I tried this and it did work, but not until after some time had passed. It does still show version 3.0 however, but at least it is reporting the correct status. It definitely needs a fix.

    rebuilding the repository does normally fix issues especially left behind software,Not the case on my end.just a hunch here get security center to see V4 and the problem goes away.

    Same thing here. Even though ESS is running fine, Security Center reports firewall down as well as Antivirus...

    I have ESS beta 4 installed on Vista Business SP1 and there are no problems with the Windows Security Centre at all. Perhaps the issue relates to just some of the Vista versions (Home and Home premium)

    I have Vista Home Premium SP1 and no problems with Security Center (except from the fact that it says that v3 is installed , no v4 , but this is because ESET haven't changed the number) . When protection is enabled , Security Center is correct . When - disabled , correct , too .

    No issues with Security Center with both EAV and ESS v4

    The "Malware Protection" could relate to anything including Windows Defender. I have the windows firewall turned off and Defender totally disabled. If defender runs at startup, it can really slow the system.

    Don't be so nieve, if you expand it you will see it will list any Apps that apply to warning, and ESET will be listed in there.

    This never ever happened in v3 for me and we know v4 is beta but its a mess for a public beta cause the internal beta testers must have done no testing before we got it.

    I do not mind all the issues I have IF we are given regular builds.

    For instance, the French peep who makes VLC for FREE gives out daily beta builds, sometimes multiple builds.

    A Beta is exactly that. If you don't want issues, don't test betas. Simple.

    ~~ snip ~~

    WTF did I state above ? :mad:

    QUOTED :

    " This never ever happened in v3 for me and we know v4 is beta but its a mess for a public beta cause the internal beta testers must have done no testing before we got it.

    I do not mind all the issues I have IF we are given regular builds. "

    Do not try change the story from the wrong fact you are giving out, the Security Centre will have ESET listed in there along with other App's if they both fall into that same category.


    If you do not have anything helpful to say on the matter or do not know what your talking about its best to say nothing because it simply makes you look a n00b.

    P.S the next time I get same error as peep above I will expand it and take a screenie just for your benefit. :cool:
