Nod32 Extra Tweaks and Google Earth

Hi guys,

I have followed the tutorial on maximising Nod32 as directed by Nod32 Australia, after being infected by a nasty malware application. I have since found that Google Earth now fails to contact its server and I am unable to download new images.

I know that the Nod32 tweak is stopping this from running properly but don't know how to allow this app to work as it should without undoing the changes made from the tutorial.

Does anyone have any ideas on how to get Google Earth working? Please forgive me if this question has already been answered, but as I am at work I have a very limited time to search through these forums and I couldn't find anything that has helped.

Thanks.

 

Hi recrem, welcome to Wilders.

This simply does not sound like an issue with NOD32, have you tried reinstalling Google Earth?

Have you checked your firewall's settings?

Cheers

 

I use NOD32, and I have run Google Earth plenty of times. My NOD32 is tweaked to the maximum.

 

Same here

 

I'd wager it's not NOD related...perhaps something else with your winsock get out of place.

I use Google Earth a lot, have NOD32 with my own settings..no conflict.

Try this tool?

I don't use Google Earth (although I find it fantastic) and I don't know what ports exactly it use but if it use HTTP you may check IMON's compatiability for it as shown in the screenshot below . Make sure Google Earth is green(higher efficency) .

Then Open IMON-Setup-Miscelanneous-Exclusions and add some G-Earth programs there so they won't be scanned by it . Do the same with AMON but in AMON-Setup

If this doesn't fix the problem , reinstall NOD32 as suggested by Blackspear and make sure you configure it using his settings.


Make sure you configure your firewall correctly so it allows Google Earth to communicate .

If this doesn't correct the problem , please write an email to one of these addresses so you'll contact the ESET TechSupport:
