As per title, eset doesn't open the redirect banking protection tab when you visit banking sites since this Firefox update, but i can manually launch a protected Firefox browser tab input the web address into it and it loads the login page and works fine, but it no longer automatically opened the banking protection redirect tab, is this up to Mozilla to fix ?

That is going to suck if they did that for reals because I only use local accounts so dose my sister and a lot of my friends too.
According to the article they have implemented it, but to get around it make sure the PC is not connected to the net when you install win10, and follow the offline prompts and it will give you the option to create a local account, if you already have a local account this won't change ,

Seems like the top people in this forum are trying to push Win 10, not just MS.
I respected these members until they became sales people for win10. Using win7 they say; it's time to upgrade, over and over. I haven't updated win7 in years never been hit by any malware.
Please, win 7 will be around along time, way after Eset stop's the support.
I like 7, it's fast, not a hundreds out-bound connections like 10, trying to gather your data.
Some people just don't care about privacy, so now there is 10.
Yes win 10 might be more secure for the average person that might visit bad sites, and open attachments, download any file. But if your somewhat smart about what not to do, you will most likely be safe. Without being looked after by big brother (MS).
Much like myself i have also avoided all ms telemetry patches and the useless MRT that likes to phone home too, MS have lost the plot IMO they no longer have any respect for what personal computer means, it means i have full control of what updates i want to install and when they are installed not some o/s interrupting me, also ms no longer is selling you an O/S it's selling you a service in win 10, at the moment for those who upgraded it's free , but they could at some points move to a subscription model
-
I doubt they will, now that Mozilla has released a minor update that fixes this issue
-
This was what i thought it meant and after how sneaky MS was at 1st trying to force win10 on win7 machines without the users consent, trust in MS is at a low
-
Firefox is now loading the banking protection service again since the minor update 73.0.1 x 64 bit Win 7
-
But why Are ESET nagging us about it, we who still use win7 know it's out of support unless we are paying for extended support and some companies are BTW , what happens if the user clicks on the stay protected box? does it link to MS upgrade to win 10 web page or does it try to initiate assimilation to the unwanted o/s , was my concern in my initial what is this about ,which still hasn't been answered, or confirmed what clicking on the stay protected box does, what is it's purpose ?
-
It was a pop up type notification but a bit bigger , that had 2 options stay protected, or Postpone, it confused me to, i 1st thought is was a eset product upgrade nag, but it wasn't because it said WIN 7 o/s was no longer supported by Microsoft then below it had to boxes the left-hand side was blue (stay protected) and the Right-hand side was white and said postpone i used the close x in the top right corner and it disappeared , I just wondered why eset would be trying to push people into upgrading to WIN 10, what would the stay protected option do, link to the MS Win10 page or the win10 upgrade site? If i ever was going to upgrade the o/s on any pc i wouldn't be doing an in o/s upgrade clean install every time
Win7 is as safe as win10 it's down to how it is used , but until M/S stops issuing patches that break more than they fix, and changes their update choices so the END user has control over what gets installled on THEIR machine i won't be going to win 10,

Why is Eset nagging us about using win7 because Microsoft no longer support it? what's the options on the nag , stay protected or postpone about ?

Same with Firefox 73.0 and ESET Internet security 13.0.24.0
Downgraded Firefox to 72.0.2 64b
Firefox detects downgrade and forces creation on a new profile, (loosing all my bookmarks)
Restored from backup
C:\Users\UsersName\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\
C:\Users\UsersName\AppData\Local\Mozilla
Which mostly fixed the normal version of Firefox but not the profile for ESET Banking protection. Where is that stored?
I restored mine by using the about:profiles and then selecting my older profile that was in use prior to downgrading , and then reverting to 73 again,
-
Having the same issue win 7 x64 and ff, i downgraded to the previous version and it still didn't work,
-
Network logs?
-
I have been seeing a similar issue but with a 3rd party application Techspeak 3 server, it 1st occurred on the file default transfare port, so i changed that port problem went away until today, eset scans detect nothing on my pc ??????

There are many things about win10 that i will avoid, the lack of control over updates is just one reason not to downgrade IMO, because it's MY hardware My PC i therefore should have total control , plus MS with Win 10 no longer are selling you a product that you own it's now a service, whilst build upgrades are free that could change in the future, but the extensive telemetry most of which is hidden deep within and is always reverted following a build upgrade, and the METRO GUI That unlike with Win 8.1 can't be replaced with the classic shell, I have a stable machine and have had 60+ days without a restart
-
Well until MS releases a stable UNBROKEN build on their bloated o/s win10 I will avoid it like the plague i ain't no sheep that blindly follows the herd or believes the propaganda used to steer us

With respect Marcos, my input was not what will happen in the future but was regarding the present , and i was suggesting a method that the OP could instal the product that they may well of paid for , but why is eset abandoning sha-1? Are they just in cahoots with MS or is there a real security risk ?

Always risky though.
Risks of data loss can be minimized if you make regular system images and store on a external ssd ,

You could install v12 and then upgrade to 13 it runs fine without the latest broken ms patches , in fact i haven't patched my Win7 since Dec 17 security only update, .net has been patched upto date as has office

It according to the event viewer log is during shutdown, i get 2 similar entries each time i reboot or shut down, other than that nothing
