Are there problems with the North American (Canada) database servers?
Running NOD32 8.0.319.0 the last successful (manual) update I have
received is database version 14292 downloaded around 19 hours ago.
Whenever I run a manual update now it goes away for several seconds then
returns indicating that the database is up to date. But clearly there has
been at least five database updates since that release, with the current
at time of writing being 14297.
No problems here with Web access - browsers, mail readers, etc. all
working normally.

Normally you should see this forum website to use a certificate issued for forum.eset.com. Invision Power Services is the service provider. Are you continually getting this warning or it was just a glitch that cannot be reproduced?
It's odd. Still get it. Here's the steps I took:
(1) Opened FF and cleared the cache, Closed FF.
(2) Opened NOD32 8, went to Advanced setup.
(3) Set to "Always scan SSL protocol". Checked the two boxes "Apply created exceptions
based on certificates" and "Block ... SSL v2".
(4) Under Certificates I have checked "Add the root certificate to known browsers"
(5) Clicked OK and closed NOD32 GUI.
(6) Opened FF and went to forum.eset.com
(7) Got a popup from ESET (see attached).
(8) If I click on "Yes" I get an error message from FF (not the one shown in my first post).
(9) If I tell FF to Try Again, the same NOD32 dialog pops up.
(10) If I answer "Yes, always" the cert gets added to NOD32's "Trusted Certificates".
But then I get the message from FF that I attached in my opening post.
I suppose I could just click on "Add Exception" in that FF dialog, but it seems strange
that I should have to do that.
FWIW on another system here with Bitdefender IS 2015 and SSL scanning enabled, I don't
get that FF message from these forums.

I don't know whether to laugh or cry at this ironic experience. When I enable SSL scanning
in NOD32 8 and try to access these forums using Firefox 44.0.1 I get the following:
"The owner of forum.eset.com has configured their website improperly. To
protect your information from being stolen, Firefox has not connected to
this website.
forum.eset.com uses an invalid security certificate.
The certificate is only valid for enterprise-ssl.invisionpower.com"
What have I missed?
Database updates not occurring.
in ESET NOD32 Antivirus

Update:
Whatever the cause, it seems to be sorted now. No changes made at my end but
an update attempt at 03:27 AM EDT Oct 18 2016 was just completed successfully.
The database is now at version 14297 in my installation.
Thanks for any attention given to this thread by anyone.
