Recently, my log scanning time dropped to a third its previous value. No complaint, but it was so significant I wondered if I mangled something. I do not recall changing any ESET parameters.

New User Interface Change Needed
kyo1972 replied to samu5614's topic in ESET Internet Security & ESET Smart Security Premium
I'd vote for usability, clarity, convenience over flashiness. There is one thing I would change. The Tools menu takes two clicks to get to the most frequent things I use. I imagine that the first click that leads to Payment Protection, Connected Home Monitor, and Anti-Theft are the upgraded features beyond the most basic product and so there is economy of coding in leaving the rest of the tools separate. So I have to use the "More Tools" option to get what I really want. Not a big deal. Long ago I used a system called ccMail. When you deleted an email it responded with a little flash of f -
I get a lot of these messages on startup. I do not see explorer in the Startup list in Task Manager. I also get a fair number of HIPS entries about self-defense and access to eset files. I recently changed from MS Edge to Firefox in the Banking & Payment Protection feature. Eset is not showing any alerts. Is this anything to worry about?

Banking & Security input altered
kyo1972 replied to kyo1972's topic in ESET Internet Security & ESET Smart Security Premium
This problem has not reoccurred. I did try changing the keyboard protection setting and keying away while watching. No changed keystrokes. I enabled the setting again, typed a lot, no problems. I tried keying into notepad, no problem. I tried running an ESET virus scan and Windows Defender and Cinebench while using the protected browser. No errors. There were times when the display lagged the keystrokes. The website I had trouble with was under heavy load. I am willing to believe this problem is due to a heavy load plus the under-powered capacity of my PC. I know that is unsatisfying and -

It does not happen every time, maybe 1 in 8 times (wild guess). MS Edge is my default. I will try disabling keyboard protection. -
For the last couple of versions (13.1.21.0 and its predecessor) I think that the ESET secured web browser has occasionally been changing my input. E.g. I type "45..." and "p1..." shows up. I thought it might simply be me mistyping things but it has happened often enough that I think there is a real problem. After I have this problem, if I type slowly the keyed characters do appear correctly. If I type quickly while watching my hands, the text usually appears correctly but after a delay. I have an old rather sluggish PC (Pentium N3700 1.6 Ghz cpu) running Windows 10.0.018363. I run scans

Thanks for both responses. My first problem was finding the executable (Program Files\WindowsApps\JAMSoftware. . . .) and my second was ignorance of the advanced feature to check a file for reputation. I did try help to find information about reputation features but did not recognize a reference to it. It works fine. Thank you.

I recently installed Treesize Free from the Microsoft store, from JAM Software. Installation was fine, execution worked, no ESET problems. For some reason, I wondered where this product was installed. A Treesize FAQ said it was in Program Files (x86), but I did not find it there. I looked in Program Files and it was not there either. I think I am showing hidden files. This made me suspicious and I uninstalled this app. I realized at this point that I could have used ESET reputation reporting (Running Processes) to check this app. I could reinstall this app and look at its reputation, but I won

Hello, I got the js/agent.ntd threat about 5 days ago. I had done an in-depth scan at 10:20 am that found nothing, and had problems later in the day. Another in-depth scan found it at about 10pm. So the threat is gone. But I am not sure what it did while it was on my PC. I am chagrined to say that I have some sensitive files such as tax forms and scanned images of id. I looked at last access dates for some of the files and they seemed to suggest there was no recent access, but I do not know if last access date can be trusted. There is some activity reflected in the event log, but I do not
