I've a paid licence of Nod32 Can I test ESS?

Hi, sorry by my english.
I've a paid licence for Nod32, I wish to try ESS because I need a good firewall for my W Vista.
So how can I test it if I have Nod32 2.70.39 installed?
May be unistall Nod and install ESS?
Can I use my licence to test it or what happen with it if I use ESS instead Nod?

 

Hi guilijan,

Keep in mind that this is a beta, so there are still some bugs left.
Please take your precautions, in case something goes wrong.
Make an image of your system prior to installing ESS.
Installing it will be at your own risk.

Now onto your question.
If you've NOD32 installed, you should uninstall it first prior to installing ESS.
For me it runs in a different snapshot, made by FirstDefense.
Your license won't work with ESS. You'll get one provided automatically to test this beta.
Your license will stay valid with NOD32, not with ESS on release.

If you do happen to find a bug or have an enhancement requesst, submit it to Eset.

Have fun while playing with it.

 

Thank you for your answer
I'm not happy with "Make an image of your system prior to installing ESS"
Do somebody know when at least the RC will see the light?

 

My pleasure.

Well, that's part of testing a beta, so in case something happens, you don't mess up your system.

Difficult to predict when it will be released. There are so many factors at play, so nobody will be able to give you an exact date/period.
Just wait until it's ready for the public.

 

Although the latter is true of course - an existing NOD32 license does in fact work with ESS. I've been using it since the start of the Beta program...

 

See reply from Marcos about the very same question I asked.
simply speaking yes you can

Well guys thanks again.
I think that if I have a serious problem with this beta, I can restore my Vista to a previous point, so perhaps I will give it a chance.

Some screenshots?

 

Here you can find some extra information and 8 screenshots:

Thanks, didn't read that yet.
Also IMO there's no benefit by running it with your license, since the beta comes with a license on its own or am I wrong.

 

What after ESS is out finally.

Would NOD32 still exists as stand alone AV?

Would be NOD32 v.3, just as Antivirus,beside the suite.

 

As far as I know there will still be NOD32 V.3

 

Glad to hear that.
