ebill reacted to a post in a topic: ESET Internet Security subscription expiring, not sure how long to renew

Tennis101 - In an effort to explain a bit better (also a US xfinity customer). I suspect you have rented equipment from Xfinity for your home network. This would be the "box" your cable connects to, it possibly also supply's your WiFi home network. If this is true for your setup, its essentially is your local "network". ESET wisely assumes a public nature (absolute max security) to all "new" networks. I think (my opinion) you have two ways to configure. You could set the "network" (as outlined above) as trusted or leave it "public" these determine the level of "trust" at the local level for your firewall. You can still use the "network inspector" while configured at a "public" trust level by clicking continue at the warning. Just please be sure to only do this on your own home system. I hope this helps clear up some confusion for you - ebill

Welcome Tio, I am not familiar with your phone model, but may offer some suggestions. I use a three seat ESET internet security and a two seat ESET mobile security for our phones very happy with both and the mobile version is very reasonably priced (if it would work on your mobile). Another option would be to see if your router allows a guest network and if it would also have an option to isolate main wi-fi and guest. This would make clients on the guest network (your phone) incapable of direct communication with main network. This gives some piece of mind. Nothing can replace keeping a watchful eye on things, keeping your router firmware up to date and your operating systems on all devices. Hope you enjoy the ESET products - ebill

ebill reacted to a post in a topic: Proper use of "payment protection" in Mobile Security 6.0.25
-
I hope I did not miss the obvious in my searching. I am trying to fully understand the intended use of the mobile version of payment protection. The Payment protection feature looks like it is for "payment" apps only such as Google pay and dedicated bank apps not browsers (like the desk top version). If I check off my browser under manage and open the browser from normal icon (for non payment browsing) ESET flags that with a message the app was opened without full protection message. Is my deduction accurate that this feature is not for browsers were payment "could" be entered and is only for dedicated "apps" ? Sorry if I missed something -- Thanks Ebill

saving browser logins
ebill replied to flutterby's topic in ESET Internet Security & ESET Smart Security Premium
Hi flutterby, Firefox should save your passwords effectively, as well. Under settings check your settings here I don't save passwords myself so my "ask to save" is unchecked. Most in the know say to use a master password for extra security, but that would be entirely up to you. Also remember if you use banking and payment a separate Firefox profile is created, so you would want to set that profile to your liking as well for use in B&P. Tip -- To work that B&P profile, simply launch a blank B&P windows through the desk top shortcut and set it up like you want. Hope this helps - ebill -
saving browser logins
ebill replied to flutterby's topic in ESET Internet Security & ESET Smart Security Premium
Also - In addition to the requested ESET version, could you share your OS version and the browser/browsers you like to use this should allow us help you. I am not aware of any ESET default settings that would interfere with the common browsers ability to save logins on windows 10. -

gary11111, Please try to open B&P from the shortcut and go to your bank site, FF should work fine for you this way. With FF and ESET banking and payment a separate profile is created. You may set your personal security you wish FF to use with B&P in this profile by just opening B&P and choosing FF "options" while in the B&P window (you can use tighter security than normal browser for example). Personally I love this method of operation, I have just my secure payment sites in the B&P profile. I open B&P from the desktop shortcut when I want to have its extra level of protection while making payments. I even organize my favorites in that profile making the house finances very efficient. Getting every site to open as desired is quite a challenge with modern site design. If you supply your bank site the moderators may be able to pass that on to developers to see why it is not opening automatically. I hope this may help in your enjoyment of ESET, in my opinion one of the best -- ebill

Current version of .apk install file 5.2.68?
ebill replied to ebill's topic in ESET Products for Mobile Devices
Thank you to both Nightowl and peteyt -- I see the main eset website seems to steer toward the play store. I know there will be differences such as the call filter. I think I will try the play store version and try it out. This way I won't accidentally lock out updates (I did that to myself once). BTW - I have only downloaded the .apk file from ESET's official web site. There are other versions and know they should be avoided. Thanks again - ebill -
Hello ESET community, I use ESET mobile security and and seeing post referring to version 5.3.30, I am showing 5.2.68 as current and up to date (apk file). I installed from the .apk file and wonder if it is still updated and supported? Or is the most current supported version the Google play version. I just want to stay updated to the most recent version, for the best security. Thank you - ebill

Manual Update check causes ESET app to close
ebill replied to ebill's topic in ESET Products for Mobile Devices
I fixed this issue - I found out what I "may" (probably) had done that caused this issue. It had to do with phone permissions, I must have inadvertently undone the ESET app permission to "Install applications from outside sources" I downloaded and installed the latest .apk file and installed it. This brought me up to date and uncovered my personal error with the app's permissions. I hope this helps someone who finds they cannot successfully "check" for updates on android. ebill -

Hello, I have two Android phones with ESET mobile security installed they are Android Oreo 8.1.0 (up to date) with ESET version 5.2.42.0 (showing as up to date). I had installed ESET mobile security from the .apk originally about a year ago. When hitting the "Update" in the ESET app under settings the app says "checking" briefly and than closes. I was wondering if that is normal, I seem to remember it checking and letting me know it saw no new version before. It looks like auto update is working fine, I don't manually check this very often just once and a while to ensure a auto update was not missed. Thanks - ebill

itman, Seems to be working for me with latest version 12.2.23.0 & Thunderbird is the only email client in use on the PC in the screen shot below. mousing across the graph it says 13 emails scanned today. Note: I did need to do "show more" as Marcos suggested but now it seems as you can see its on the "fist" page

ESET blocking url, how to add a rule/exception.
ebill replied to elle's topic in Malware Finding and Cleaning
elle, It looks from your screen shots eset has found a ligament threat on the site you are trying to access. The most prudent course may be to contact the site's manager and alert them. I am far from the expert here, but I would not try to "allow" access to that site till the warning goes away. One good thing to try is clear your browser cache and temp files restart your PC and see if the warning is still displayed. All the best -- ebill
