ESET and Windows 7

I heard that ESET has a Windows 7 (beta?) version available.

If so, where can I find it for download?

I've installed v3.0.68? on W7, it appears to be working OK, though I haven't put my licence details into it, so it fails on the update schedule.

OK, thanks.

Where can I get a "leak test"?

 

Hello,

Beta test versions of ESET's software can be found at http://beta.eset.com/.

Aryeh:

Thanks.

Also, in testing I uninstalled the ESET Smart Security on a Windows 7 machine, and I still am getting indications in the Notification area that egui.exe is installed.

I know it cannot be, as I had run an uninstall program. Where would ESET store the 4.0.687.0 Virus Signature database?

Hello,

Did you check the [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run] key to see if an entry for EGUI.EXE is still present? If so, try removing (renaming or deleting) the directory listed in that registry entry, then removing the entry itself.

I found nothing running in the registry at all, but I found a solution:
