    (if you have NOD32 ver. 2.X)what file do you run ? nod32kui.exe or nod32.exe ? if you run nod32kui.exe then thats normal you get that error msg because in safe mode nod32 kernel is not running. To scan in safe mode you should run nod32.exe instead of nod32kui.exe
    (if you have NOD32 ver 3) to scan on safe mode you should run ecls.exe (command line scanner via command prompt / run menu)

    which version of nod32 do you use ? if you use version 3 try to uninstall then install rc1 (latest) which include ecls.exe (command line scanner)
