    As far as I know, ESS 6 isn't compatible yet with Windows 8.

    Hello,

    Support for Microsoft Windows 8 is not yet finalized as the operating system itself is not yet available in the retail channel. That said, you can ensure that you get the latest modules for ESET Smart Security 6 Beta by turning on pre-release updates. This will help ensure that you receive module updates that contain incremental improvements for Windows 8 support as it is added to the program.

    Regards,

    Aryeh Goretsky

    Also to add , started getting "failed to read firewall configuration", also since installing smart security 6, my machine has crashed several times, i didn't think much of it to start with but now after looking in to when it started crashing and when i installed SS 6 i believe it is linked,

    When a computer crashes, the firewall may fail to write data to the dat file properly. If you get this error even without a crash, we can investigate it further.
