ESET NOD32 Antivirus becomes haywire

After updating to the latest Virus signature database 2571 (20071004).

Out of sudden, there are firewall components in ESET NOD32 Antivirus.

Hey,

that's strange.

But I already complained in my thread, that there are firewall modules/files/filters/dlls by default in the installation directory of NOD32 AV 3.0..

That's strange and unnecessary!

Why the NOD32 AV 3.0 RC1 installer does have these files included?
They are useless..

Here my thread for details:

Priceless

 

Could you please confirm or deny that you had ESS installed before? If so, was it uninstalled properly before you commenced installing EAV?

 

Yes, I can confirm I only have ESET NOD32 Antivirus RC 1 (Prior to that, Beta 2 & NOD32 V2.70) installed.

I do not have ESS installed before (as I already own a copy of Outpost Firewall Pro with lifetime license).

 

While downloading the latest Virus signature database, I noticed there was a downloaded file with size approximately 7 MB.

Could this be the problem?

 

I can confirm that there are Firewall files in ESET NOD32 AV Only as my firewall tells me it wants access to the web!

TH

 

i can also confirm this...i just uninstalled ESS and install AV 3 with Look n stop

am really satisfied now

 

Please carry on as follows:
- compress the content of the "C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Eset\Eset Smart Security\Updfiles" folder and upload it to an ftp server (if you don't have any, send me a PM and I'll provide you with an account)
- run regedit and export the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Eset registry key to a reg file
- send an email with this thread's url in the subject and the reg file attached to support[at]eset.com

 

AFAIK web scanner depends on firewall component in ESS so i think EAV have firewall component in order to get web scanner functional.

 

EAS? or EAV!

Cheers,

sorry i means EAV hehehehehee

 

The amazing thing is when I logged on to my PC this morning, ESET NOD32 Antivirus becomes normal again.

The firewall components have disappeared from it!

Regarding the file with size > 7MB, I think it is nod1165.nup (the actual size is 7,192 KB).

I have just sent you an email with the reg file (under ESET.rar).

Please PM me a FTP account.

Note: There is no C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Eset\Eset Smart Security, it is ESET NOD32 Antivirus

 

Look in your C:\Program Files\Eset Folder or where you installed ESET NOD32 AV in my case it is on D:\Program Files\ESET Folder and look for this file eguiEpfw.dll 3.0.414.0 Eset Personal Firewall UI.

Cheers,

TH

 

Yes, this file exists.

 

Marcos,

Don't have to arrange a FTP account for me.

I have already sent you the Updfiles in the following manner (my email account can send attachment up to 10MB)-

Updfiles.rar containing all (except the Temp folder) , sent via email under Subject: ESET NOD32 Antivirus becomes haywire - Continue

Updfiles1.rar containing the Temp folder(it only contains the file em002_32.dat), sent via email under Subject: ESET NOD32 Antivirus becomes haywire - Continue 1

Please check.

Note: the reg file (under ESET.rar) sent via email under Subject: ESET NOD32 Antivirus becomes haywire
