    Hi all,

    I've been trying to install the trial version of NOD32 personal, but regardless of where I DL it from, the text in the setup is all garbled up. I don't think it's even a language. I have recently wiped my drive clean, have run all the spyware/adaware removal tools, and have all the XP updates. I am behind a router as well.

    Why has the language changed in the install files? I had previously installed NOD32 before I wiped the drive and everything worked fine. English was english. For some reason, now it's not.

    Can you try downloading a FRESH copy from www.nod32.com

    Delete your TEMP files by doing the following:

    Open up Internet Explorer

    Click on Tools

    Internet Options

    General TAB

    Temporary Internet Files

    Delete Files

    Delete All Offline Content.


    Make sure your "Temp" folder exists: C:\Documents and Settings\User Name\Local Settings\Temp Also make sure this folder is empty.

    Delete the Eset folder if it exists in: C Drive> Program Files

    Install the FRESH copy of Nod32

    Let us know how you go...

    Cheers :D

    Hi Neil,
    before you start installing NOD32, make sure the directory program files\eset doesn't exist, or delete it. Should the problem persist, please post a screenshot with the garbled text here.

    Many thanks to both of you. I followed the instructions as posted above and was able to install without any problems. Thanks again. NOD32 is the bomb!

    The garbled language I was refering to before is as seen below:

    The problem is fixed thanks to you guys! Don't have a clue what happened before. Doesn't really matter to me now though.

    Good to see, there is a thread for tweaking Nod32 here: https://www.wilderssecurity.com/showthread.php?t=37509


    Looks like Swahilli to me ;) :D

    :D :D :D

    That's a great link Blackspear. I tweaked the hell out of NOD! :) I'm fairly new to the program, (but not new to computers) so it really helped. I'll have to tweak the settings on my parents computer as well. Thanks again,

    Neil

    Got to feel sorry for the Poles, haven't you. Lumbered with a garbled language that looks like Swahili... :D

    I didn't mean to imply that polish (or whatever that was) wasn't a language, it's just that I've had problems with my computer just throwing a bunch of letters together before in random order. I don't have a clue what caused it, I just assumed that it was the same problem. Sorry if I offended anyone.

    There must have been a Polish version of NOD32 before. When installing a different language version, it's necessary to remove the Eset folder manually, otherwise the language used during the installation will be mixed up (for instance, this is how it looks like in the Slovak version which Bandicoot has found out to be pretty difficult to master: Začiatočník - kladú sa len základné otázky, Pokročilý - podrobnejšie nastavenia programu, Expert - veľmi podrobné nastavenia)

    That's what I don't understand. I had an english version running on my computer for a few weeks, then I formatted the whole shabang, tried to install the same trial version that I saved to a CD and whatever that language was popped up.

    When it was unpacking for install, it was in english, the header and title - NOD32 for windows etc. - was in english, but everything else was in a different language. I'm just glad someone was able to figure it out because I only speak English. I spent some time in Russia, and basically took a great big kick in the crotch trying to learn Russian. Good lord I suck at learning languages.

    Milý Marcos,
    som na Slovensku len 10 mesiacov a ucím sa slovensky tak rýchlo ako sa dá.
    Hlavné je, ze dokázem plynule objednat dve pivá!

    I'm doing my best.... but it's a tricky old language mate.

    :D

    I don't think it's even a language.

    Ha ha.... well, it is a lovely language actually.... just a bit tricky for a dim wit like me. If you'd like a translation, I said to my good pal Marcos :

    "Dear Marcos,
    I've only been in Slovakia for 10 months and I'm learning the language as fast as I can. The main thing is I can order 2 beers fluently!"

    Best to get your priorities right I always think.
    Bandicoot.
    :D :D

    I fell the same way. When it came to ordering beer in Russia, I turned into Rainman... "Yea definately beer, I definately need 2 beer"

    Я пиво 2
