When you say HIPS is broken, do you mean you are having problems with https: websites?

I also have a problem with Firefox 48.0 and add-ons from Mozilla the download never finishes and throws an error comment every time.
This all happened yesterday also.
Update: If I disable Web & Mail > SSL/TLS > Enable SSL/TLS protocol filtering my browser works like it should.
Can anybody explain to me why that is as I am not computer literate enough to work it out myself.
I guess I worded that badly. I am referring to the problem of not being able to start HIPS - I believe the cause being something to do with problematic communication between Windows 10 (Windows Security Centre?) and NOD32
No worries, you never know unless you ask.
Update: Eset NOD32 upgraded to v9.0.402.0 and SSL/TLS activated, everything appears to working Ok, I have only had 1 x Untrusted Certificate pop up today (08/31/2016)
