    Stem,

    you belong to the lucky ones, i assume your database is maybe some days "old".

    Honest trial-users have to deal with a database more then 1 month old.
    IMHO it is highly irresponsible behavior direction trial-user.

    Well,
    Seriously there are issues regarding these big updates the first 24h with Commercial and trial versions of NOD32 antivirus.

    But I'm glad you guys have decided to solve it with new servers.

    I don't know marcos but latley it feels like you've become suspicous to everyone regarding of they are using a genuine version of NOD32.

    Maybe you guys should have a discount for those pirates that wants to become clean ;) .. jk

    I was running two pc's with paid nod32 and one other with a trial. As of an hour ago none would update. This whole update issue along with some of the responses really left me feeling sour. So... I went ahead and took the offered advice and uninstalled the trial ~snip~ this is the NOD32 Support Forum ~ Blackspear

    Hi all,
    Now as for me, it is impossible to get the 1.1682 database:eek: . Already to get the 1.1680 database, i had to click 15 times on the "update now" button:blink: ; for database 1.1681, i had to click 50 times to get it:cautious: . How many clicks are necessary to get the 1.1682? LOL. From now on to get updates, the number of clicks will increase exponentialy? LMAO
    Yet i am a regular registered user and NOD32 is set to get updates automatically...:(
    Thanks for your reply.
    Cheers,
    Hervé

    Mine's too, but I don't assume this has something to do with the load of the update servers. We're on it.

    Hi Stem,

    I meant a completely different person, not you. Sorry, I didn't realize you may take it personally since you started the thread.

    Hi there,

    I just wanted to say for the record that my updates have always been very regular and never needed a manual prompt.

    However lately with the massive update of 1.1678 it stopped for a couple of days and I had to update manually. It is now regular again i'm upto 1.1682, but something was definetly strange.

    Hi Lucy85, welcome to Wilders.
    It is best to leave Servers on "Choose Automatically".

    Cheers :D

    I was frustrated, apparently did some spruiking and made some changes to my av choices. Regardless, I second Blackspears advice to leave servers on automatic.

    I suspect the update issue may be resolved as my two pc's running NOD finally updated, as have a couple of clients machines that were running trials.

    I've been reading with attention all the posts of this thread because I'm unsure about how the update process happens:

    I'm now at my office, it is 9 AM and yesterday at home NOD was at update 1.1681 when I detected that update 1.1682 was ready I tried manually but got always the response that NOD was updated.

    My question is:

    When you get the answer that it is updated, that means that NOD was able to contact the server and received the answer that no new update was available ?

    or

    you can get this answer even if NOD is unable to contact the server?

    and if you try manually and the contact is not possible do you get an event notifiction at the log?

    This is because I attempted to update manually and I got the message that NOD was still updated but there was no new lines at the event log. It seems that the server contact was possible or not?

    And if the contact is possible why do I receive the message that NOD is still updated but I know that it is not?
    If the server is loaded with a new update and the contact is made (I don't have any lines is event log with missing contacts) why this kind of message?

    Yes.

    No.

    Correct.

    It was, otherwise you would have seen it in the log or a notification would popup if no connection could be made to any server.

    Could be overloaded or server was not yet updated with the new defs.

    Hello everybody,

    Having been a registered user since I saw benefactions fact to my system with the trial version I am to ask the question but why thus rest it blocks on the definition of virus 1.1677 but by reading your topics I noticed that that did not come from me but from servers. Now I followed an advice that is to kidnap my version and to put a piece of news what I made. But here is impossible for me to pass to the version 1.1682 this morning. I arrived but at the end of 50 attempts there as said it precedly Hervé. I hope that it is not my license which seen bug which I changed operating system recently.

    See ya

    I've updated to 1.1682 finally. IT's not your license actarus9999. It's a general problem.

    How much time have past since you paid for your NOD32 ?

    When you paid for it , did you removed the trial version and installed the full version with your unique username and password o_O

    This is very unlikely . As Marcos said there is no longer issues with the servers . I can also confirm , everybody at my office updated successfully to 1.1682 and everything is fine.

    Details ... pls :)

    Having learnt that Windows 98SE would stop being updated from July 11th I thus convinced myself that I had to hand on to XP professional Sp2 even if it turns out that I already had to try to install it on my system but he had been able to work correctly.

    My goodness! I just checked my NOD and it was last updated on the 23rd of June!
    nod32.jpg
    Yet I had been getting the balloon notification every day or two that my antivirus was up to date! What's going on? I had trusted that NOD was doing its job and therefore I didn't check more closely till I stumbled across this thread. I've downloaded the recent installer and that seems to have corrected it, partly at least -- I'm now on 1.1678.
    This is scandalous, and I really don't want to hear patronising and condescending comments by anyone that I haven't set my NOD up properly, or worse, that I have a cracked version installed. Yes, I relied on automatic updating, but with 5 or 6 servers I should think people shouldn't have to double-check by manually updating anyway.
    Well well well! This really has changed my view of NOD, and I was so happy with it too. How can I depend on it from now on?

    Did you have your Servers as "Choose Automatically"? As no updates for a month talks of something very different to that of the large update issue.

    Cheers :D

    This is your problem - and I'm sure that your welcome email contained the instructions to do this. Unless you have a VERY RECENT trial version, it was always necessary to remove the trial PRIOR to inputting the username/password - just putting the new username and password into the trial was not sufficient, and updates still stopped being installed. Thankfully Eset has recently changed this, because it caused no-end of problems, like it seems to have done with you.

    Just remove your NOD32 - re-download the COMMERCIAL version with your username/password from:

    http://www.eset.com/download/registered_software.php

    and setup and enter your registered username/password. Updates will be fine from then on. Sorry - but that just a fact until recently that this step is necessary - and I'm 99.9% sure it would have been in the email you received if you ordered from Eset or a reseller such as us.

    hth
