Any news on a fix for us Linux users who use Chrome, Chromium etc 😕 I see there is no mention on the Eset website. Is it too much to ask of Eset that they actually 'officially' acknowledge that there is a problem and they have a plan of action. I really do detest companies that don't keep their customers in the loop about progress (if any).

A few final comments:
1. Never ever install a browser extension/add-on from a web site request. Always install the extension from the Store associated with that particular browser.
2. Never ever absolutely assume that a browser Store extension/add-on is 100% safe. Google notoriously and Firefox to a lesser extent do not test their Store extensions for malware prior to being placed in the Store. Apps are usually removed only after someone has discovered one is malicious or potentially unwanted status.
3. Configure your browser such that extensions/add-on's are not automatically added. In other words, you must manually allow the request.
4. AV solutions are as a rule are quite poor in detecting browser extension/add-on malware. This is because the app is not a stand-alone executable but running as a processing extension to the browser.

Buy through your browser , not the software , you may or may not receive a username among the cd-key , if you only received a cd-key , you will need to convert it to username and password , an ESET staff can help you with this

We have recently discovered a problem sending customer care requests from the built-in form in ESET NOD32 for Linux desktop. I would recommend contacting ESET LLL via the web form or phone. We are working on a resolution to make the internal form work.
We apologize for the inconvenience.

Unfortunately there is no courses for ESET as far as I know
But your ideal way for this is to install one of the either , ESS or EIS , you can firewall your RDP port which is TCP port 3389 to your IP Addresses so that will rest your mind that only yourself can connect
but probably your provider has some built in firewall in your c-panel which can help you protect your VS
If you can create Virtual Machines like in Google Cloud , it's fun to try OPNSENSE if you like to make some projects.
 

Rami, Rami, Rami,
You must have a magical laptop sprinkled with Pixie dust. If only I had a source of Pixie dust right now I would feel so much better.

The worm is replicating itself from one of the computers or shares in the Network , ESET won't be able to remove it from the remote location , it will only be able to protect the computer that it's installed on
You need to clean the worm from the infected PC/share , first of all you should disconnect it from the network to prevent it from keep trying replicate itself to others, then you try to clean it off and make sure the machine is fine and then you put it back to the network.

Not a smart security decision. Also for maximum security, UAC should be set to its maximum level.

Hi,
I just published a brief guide to ESMC implementation in Proxmox :
ESET Security Management Center 7 deployment in Proxmox VE
I hope it is useful.

Your current license should cover you to upgrade your Endpoints and your current server to the current versions
As also Marcos said the File Server license will be included among the Endpoints.
You also need to watch out while using Windows 7 , it left the support , unless you buy support from Microsoft.

Hi Tom,
in Mail Security there is an option to define a custom rule to move all emails containing macro-enabled office documents to quarantine. You need to define an Attachment type condition and mark "Microsoft Office Macro-Enabled Document (97-2003)", "Microsoft Word Macro-Enabled (2007+) (*docm, *dotm)", etc...

I have found this fix for you but it would disable Siri , and this data is your voice getting to Siri
1. System Preferences -> Accessibility -> Siri
2. Click “Open Siri Preferences...”
3. Check the box for “Enable Ask Siri”
4. Move the radio button for “Voice Feedback” to “Off”
5. Uncheck “Enable Ask Siri”
After that there shouldn't be much traffic to corespeechd

Moreover, url scan and website content scan are two completely different things.

Thanks for all the replies, it was really just about windows logon that I was asking about. However knowing about all this sure was interesting.

This is only the latest among numerous other ways to employ Win OS "living of the land" legit executables to perform hidden escalation to admin privileges. Thankfully, most but not all, can be thwarted by setting UAC to its maximum setting. The issue is how many have UAC set to that level? Many don't care for its alerts at the default setting and will certainly object to more alerts at the maximum level. -EDIT- Then there is the real question of how many have the technical skills to effectively respond to an unexpected UAC alert.
Finally, there is Microsoft's atypical statement that "UAC is not a security boundary."
BTW - logging on under a standard user account will also prevent most of these hidden escalation attempts. 

@Kirill Licenses for ESET products are not sold for a specific product version. Meaning, that with your current license you will be eligible to use the new V7 as well. Linux Endpoint product is the last one running the old version of architecture / scanning core, and it will be updated to V7 soon. We are already running a beta program (available here), V7 should not have this issue at all.

As I wrote, there will be a hotfix of ESET NOD32 for Linux desktop that will address the issue.

The current up-to-date version for desktop edition is the v4
Endpoint edition v7 is running as BETA currently , once it goes stable I believe they will start looking at building the v7 for desktop.
The fix that Marcos talked about would be probably a small fix (hotfix) that will solve the issue with browsers and that's it , not a major upgrade.

There will be a fix for the issue in both Endpoint and ESET NOD32 for Linux desktop according to the latest news.

This seems to be a known issue that doesn't exist in Endpoint v7.2. It will be fixed in ESET File Security 7.2. Unfortunately I can't tell when it's due for release at the moment.

You can find that here :
I believe Google did some kind of change in Chrome that change is making problems with the legacy code of v4.
 
EDIT : Also I am sorry If I was rude or aggressive with my reply , I didn't mean that.
But you made me angry

🤝

Sorry for pressure. My fault.
But you are just looking at wrong browser, it would not be affected at all, as I understood.
Also (not for being rude, but for numbers and talking about the same things) - the problem potentially affects more than a half of users of linux platform. The ones, who use ESET product for this platform, actually.
