    The new version of Spyware Doctor (v8.0.605) prevents ESS from loading properly <sigh>

    Which Eset programs should I add to SD's global action list so it ignores them? I can't add the whole darn ESS folder - I tried!

    Hello Robin Springall,

    Have you tried adding EKRN.EXE or EGUI.EXE?

    Thank you,
    Richard

    Aargh! Spoke too soon: it worked for an hour or so, then Spyware Doctor 8 got spooked, started turning off Eset's firewall, and prevented internet access.

    For now I've reverted to SD7, but are there other files I should add to SD's exceptions list?

    Hello Robin Springall,

    Those would be the two executables to add. Have you contacted our customer support team to look deeper into this?

    Thank you,
    Richard
