Hello, The plugin is secondary. What is important is that ESET Smart Security check emails and the antispam can mark them as spam (if they are spam) before their enters in the email software. A software as SpamPal (and others) can do this work very well.
scan name popup bubble i've maintained the *relevant* default scans that ess provides, and designed myself one for a full system scan prior to backup. but when i log on or reboot from sleep or access an extermal application or whatever and one of those scans is triggered, i'd like to know which scan is in operation. i'd therefore like to see a popup bubble that provides the *name* [not just the standard 'a computer scan has started*] of the scan task being performed and for the scan log to reveal that *name* also. i'm a novice in the truest sense and to some users, identifying what scan is being, or has been performed at whatever time for whatever purpose, may be considered rudimentary, but for me [and likely others similar to me], this would greatly benefit my [our] overall understanding of how ess works for *us*. please give it consideration... thanks for your time
Re: scan name popup bubbles Hello BellaBoo You are correct by saying that Eset doesn't inform you what scan is performed. The only thing you see is that a computer scan is performed. What you proposed is a very good suggestion. By default Eset will perform a scan when you connect a USB device ( stick, external hard disk) , CD-rom that is part of the automatic removable media scan. Also when you boot a quick scan is also performed, only certain locations are scanned the system folder (in that folder all executables are located that are always loaded at every boot), boot sectors,...

Re: scan name popup bubbles thanks niels when i look at my scan log, i can see which drive has been scanned, but that's after the fact. what i'd like to see is when i'm performing a task that triggers a scan is a bubble informing me of the *name* of the scan so i can determine a relationship to what i'm doing and that the scan is not for some other reason. it's a comfort thing from the immediate position rather than an 'oh, was that what it was about?' perspective.
Hello friends what about this option for ESET , After stop a smart scan at the middle of the scan process when you try to relaunch a smart scan some times later what about an option to ask resume the smart scan from exactly the position where you stop it at the last time.I think this is a real time saving option for full system scan.
Re: scan name popup bubbles y, tyvm i must add too that whomever was 'moderating' or 'fixing things' when i posted about this [separately ], i consider crafty and mystifying and very tolerant
Hello, The Bat! ---> ESS Antispam does not work Windows Live Mail 2012 ---> ESS Antispam does not work Thunderbird 16 ---> ESS Antispam does not work Postbox ---> ESS Antispam does not work Becky ----> ESS Antispam does not work Pegasus ---> ESS Antispam does not work ... Do you think this situation is normal?
Hello, Yes, I know that. What I meant is the antispam cannot correctly work with a lots of mailers. It is high time that antispam can work independent of the mailer used. It is not normal that a product claiming to have a antispam can only works with very little mailer software. Also, I hope that developers can improve this feature in future versions.
Hello, Take a look... https://www.wilderssecurity.com/showthread.php?t=334699 http://blog.eset.com/2012/10/23/w8ing-for-v6-what-eset-has-in-store-for-windows-8-users
A built-in task manager integrated with the running processes that is now currently in tools option with options to end process...so suspected malware activity can be ended...Task manager is there but If we try to end a malware activity it will show as "access is denied"..so built in task manager might be good option!
Hello Sacles, Anti-spam does work in Windows Live Mail. But you have to right click on e-mails to be able to classify them as spam and add them to the black list. The only thing that is missing is the toolbar. Maybe it's also the case by the other mail clients, that you don't see the toolbar but when you right click on mails you will find the anti-spam in the context menu. Regards Niels
Hello, Windows Live Mail has its own antispam. What you see is not the antispam of Smart but the antispam of WLM. Take a look to the stats for the antispam in SMART. If you use WLM 2012 you will see that no mail is verified.
I can confirm that in WLM 2011 the integration works, but WLM 2012 it doesn't. Hence the reason I reverted back to the 2011 build.
1)Change the colour of the alert windows for PUPs and HIPS....It looks same when they pop up...one has to look carefully at the top to differentiate them! 2)When PUP notifications are alerted please add an option for "add to exclusion"..
1) A separate parameter setup for removable media scan. 2) A capability of manually quarantined objects scan from quarantine window. 3) A notification window that tells you that there is a quarantined false positive object that is no longer be detected after now. This window enable you to restore that object to its origin place.
This is already on the wish list. I don't think this would be useful as re-scanning files in quarantine will not 100% confirm that the file was FP or undetected malware. This wouldn't be safe. If you suspect a file to be detected incorrectly as a threat, submit it to ESET for analysis. It is impossible to make conclusions about the harmlessness of files just by scanning them.
1. Bring back ESS icon like the one used in v4 at the notification area 2. Use green color instead of blue for ESS icon in the notification area to state that ESS is in maximum protection 3. Animate ESS icon when updating virus signature database (suggestion : use a small moving down arrow sign) 4. Use a small moving microscope sign in the ESS icon when performing a computer scan instead of using green circle icon with 2 moving arrows. 5. Delete the word (example: "Home") above the "Maximum Protection" word whenever in the Home area in the ESS main menu. 6. Add the version number next to the word ESS (example: Eset Smart Security 5) in the pop up notification. Thanks.
@encus For No. 2- Green colour is already allotted for EAV, so that's why blue is allotted for ESS to distinguish between these two product. For No. 3- Yes..I think that's a good idea to think about. After all there is no difference indication to understand whether it's scanning something or downloading updates. For No. 4 & 5- Considering this two also.... @Marcos Mod....please thing over these & let the Dev know about these.
I still think Green is better (just like traffic light) and to use the same color for both ESS and EAV is practically ok (you can distinguish them by looking at the top text in their main menus). Thanks.
