  1. The thing is you're looking at the Web protection settings -> URL address management on the client but in the Configuration editor you have a Web control setup window with rules open. Web access protection and Web control are different features although both allow for blocking URL. While URL address management is a part of Web protection, Web Control is an equivalent to Parental Control in home version.

  2. Code emulation is a kind of a task that can only be performed sequentially. It's not that we now have multi-core processors and every single application will benefit from it when performing its tasks. As I wrote, if several scans are run at once (e.g. on mail servers), scanning threads are run by separate cpu cores simultaneously which increases the overall scan performance.

  3. If disabling real-time protection actually helps, the only operations performed by real-time protection are those with ekrn.exe process. Other modules do not perform file operations and even network operations are performed by ekrn.exe. I have a long-time experience analyzing Procmon logs and various issues related to ESET products so I'm sure I'm not mistaken ;)

  4. From my personal experience, ESET detects much more PUAs than any other competing products. Even if they start detecting a certain PUA, they remove detection after receiving a complaint from the application's vendor, most likely because further disputes with vendors always require a lot of investigation which is time and resource consuming.

     

    Also I'd like to emphasize that unlike some other vendors, ESET only detects files that actually pose a risk, ie. configuration files, images, text files, etc. are not detected and removed. They files are often installed with potentially unwanted applications. Therefore, in order to remove PUAs completely, we always recommend running uninstall via the Control panel -> Add/remove programs rather than deleting exe and dll files only.

  5. No egui.exe doesn't crash when I run/use CCleaner, I am talking about the issue that I provided the dumps for in the PM conversation we had 2 weeks back, that when I try to access the stup-tree egui crashes and thus, i am not able to configure anything as of yet. e.g like disabling AMS for a test.

    So CCleaner or AMS does not make egui crash I just want to make that clear :)

    I see. Your issue with egui crashing is resolved in the next beta which should be made available within a few days.
  6. It looks like I spoke too soon. Even when the HIPS modules installed fine, I got a system crash and reboot a few minutes ago. It hadn't happened with just Defender. Maybe it's the advanced memory scanner playing it unfair with Windows 8.1, but that's just me guessing. The sure thing is NOD32 is not liking Windows 8.1 so much.

    Please provide a memory dump from the crash so that we can determine the cause.
