Settings -> Antivirus protection -> Resident protection -> Run editor of extensions -> And Metods..

But I use Slovak version so the translation doesn't have to be the same..

 

Thanks for the link to Beta MNKid.

 

The anti-virus failed to detect this Eicar test file, sent as an attachment to an email from Panda. The event did not appear in the log files either.
Here is`a screen shot pf part of Panda's email to me, showing the test as a Word document as the attachment. When executed , Word opens & shows a small picture labeled "Eicar"

that not what i mean. in version 2.x even you activated Advanced Heuristic it wont scan file on-execution. what im asking is AH enabled on-execution not only on-create and on-modification

 

Strange it was detected over here.
Can't confirm

 

Are you allowed to share more info about this with us?
Thanks for this feedback

 

Panda sends a doc file and if you take a look inside, the eicar code actually changes and so does the file size.
I've never been able to detect anything sent from Panda myself while using NOD32.
You need either a txt, com or an archive. You can also try this one instead: http://nod32sse.com/avtest.php

 

I wasn't told too much about it anyway, but there was talk about a "special cleaning" mechanism, which would be able to at least partially remove even unknown malware (i.e. heuristic detections). Registry entries of even heuristic detections may be cleaned and perhaps other leftovers too.

 

Thanks Firecat

 

Oh , no , I tried this test of theirs while I was using their products (Titanium and Platinum 2005/2006) . I always received the email and it never got detected by Panda . Which is very silly because they say "if your securiry products misses it then buy our products" ... and a loopback ... Tests on eicar.org always work with all AVs but in a DOC , the strings gets changed , I think

 

This could definitely mess with my serenity. If I unserstand you correctly, the av I'm using and really like has not been able to deal w/Panda's tests.
I'm suddenly feeling more than a little concerned.
Doc

 

It won't detect it because it's not an eicar test after it's been altered by the doc. If they made regular txt or archives, there wouldn't be a problem with their tests.

And there's no need to worry really - Normal eicar tests are detected by NOD32 just fine.

 

Thank you.
All better now.

I re-loaded AVG anti spyware and on a scan it found this:- Win32.Worm.Luder.
This had not been found by either ESS or KIS on regular scans.
Could it have been lurking in Sys Restore? Can ESS scan there?
Or is it a "falsie"?

 

Don't know where it is , you only know . Yes , ESS can scan there.

Have no idea , may be . VirusTotal knows more for sure . If it appears to real malware , send a copy of it to ESET Virus Lab to email samples @ eset . com
