    Hi,

    2 days ago I started getting the following report, when I scan from virus.
    A) I don't understand these messages o_O
    B) I don't know how to fix them :mad:
    C) MBAM doesn't report any issue :rolleyes:

    Can someone please help? :-*
    Windows XP Home Edition SP3, ESS V. 4.2, MBAM, SBIE

    TIA

    There is nothing to fix your end I don't think. Are you able to update to the latest version?

    Yes, I am able to update to the latest version, Thanks Cudni :-*

    Ok, I read the ESET KB Article :-*

    I still don't undestand why ESS V. 4.2.x reports the error reading and the latest version doesn't

    Questions
    A) maybe my HDD is dying? (physical disk - error reading)
    B) 0. physical disk is C:\ or E:\?

    TIA

    check windows event viewer for errors on the disk and or run chkdsk command to check. Although I don't think hd is going bad it does not hurt to check.

    We assume this issue concerned a temporary glitch which resulted in this error even if boot sectors were scanned fine. Please update to the latest signature database.
