ESCP slows Standard User down at login
Weety replied to Weety's topic in ESET Cyber Security Pro (for Mac)
On the off-chance it was an error installing, I removed ESCP, rebooted, then re-installed A standard user takes a lot longer to login from cold-boot, than an Admin user I have removed ESCP for the moment -
I have found (on a brand new MacBook Pro), that a Standard user takes a lot longer to login (to the point you can run applications, and the menu bar fully appears) than a Admin user when ESCP is installed Removing ESCP and all goes back to normal The difference is an order of minutes, as such it's a major inconvenience I have installed the latest ESCP and have up-to-date Antivirus Signatures

Random freezes and crashes by esets_daemon
Weety replied to planet's topic in ESET Cyber Security Pro (for Mac)
Looks like it's two steps forward, and several steps backwards. I was going to install this release (and the Smart Security 9 on my Windows machines), both releases look like they have big issues. It's almost as if ESET's QA system seems to suffer from amnesia in that we keep seeing the same issues re-occur -
I suspect I'll wait for the issues to be fixed as I am loathed to reinstall the product again. I also await their uninstaller removing all ESET related files properly as post install I still found files in various locations on the system (I know they were not there before the install as I'd cleaned them when I uninstalled last time).

TomasP unfortunately as I stated above, I've now de-installed ECSP as it's interfered with my ability to use the laptop while out and about I am unwilling to let it near my system for the next few months until a few fixes/modules are updated

Having re-installed ESET Cyber Security Pro yesterday (giving ESET's latest and greatest one last chance) I have encountered an issue joining new Wifi SSID's and Joining my iPhone's 'Hotspot' On trying to join them, ECSP does not prompt for a zone, or allow their use. The Wifi network icon just moves as though its trying to join, but the connection never completes. I even disabled ESCP Firewall and Realtime scanning, restarted ... same result. (The OS X firewall was disabled before installing ESCP, and is still disabled) Killing all ESCP daemons allows the Wifi SSID to be accessed This thus appears to be an issue with ESCP As such I've had to uninstall ECSP as being unsuitable for use Has anyone else seen this issue?

No IMAPS or POP3S scanning ESET for Mac??
Weety replied to bld's topic in ESET Cyber Security (for Mac)
Yes, the Mac product is several years behind the windows product in terms of both function and usability -
Wonderful! Weeeeety don't leave the ship yet! I will wait a few weeks before I see what this release has broken/re-introduced, as we had the eset_proxy issue fixed/re-broke a few times on the prior release

ESET and 'System Integrity Protection' in OS X El Capitan
Weety replied to planet's topic in ESET Cyber Security (for Mac)
Weety, I would give ESET at least one more chance with this new release when it does come out since this is quite a major one (I hope). Planet, I have given them numerous chances, we're still awaiting fixes for the Shutdown delay nearly a year after it was reported -
ESET and 'System Integrity Protection' in OS X El Capitan
Weety replied to planet's topic in ESET Cyber Security (for Mac)
I've permenantly uninstalled ESCP because of the bugs, and lack of any real support from ESET This latest fun with them not releasing an El Capitan compatible version even 1 day before the official availability of El Capitan just reminds me of why I need to find another supplier for Antivirus/Internet Security -
ESET and 'System Integrity Protection' in OS X El Capitan
Weety replied to planet's topic in ESET Cyber Security (for Mac)
It would be better to release it in advance so people can update to a compatible version before El Capitan is released -
I won't hold my breath As you have said Endpoint Security for OS X was released earlier in the year and had the fixes, its months since that was released and we're still suffering the flaws identified in Cyber Security near a year ago Time to move on I think

6.0.14.3 seems like 1 step forward, 3 steps back as above I've removed it, and now have a fast, responsive Mac
-
I've now stopped using Cyber Security Pro I had an issue over the weekend where iCloud could not authenticate .. I logged out of iCloud and back in and could not setup Mail or Notes Disabling CSP had no effect, only once removed was I able to re-setup email/notes This plus the long delays for fixes means I'm at the point of dropping ESET from all my devices, I might even just install Norton on the Windows PCs ESET pull your damned finger out and fix the Home CSP issues and bring it on-par with Smart Security
-
As expected, it's getting time to look for another supplier .. I mean this issue is only 9+ months old
-
I had 1 PC that installed OK, without issues I however had 3 that all had issues with ESET Smart Security, I had not only to de-install via control panel, but use the ESET Removal tool in Safe Mode to kill it out Once removed and windows 10 patched (yes there were patches available for it already), I was able to re-install OK one PC did then complain about the firewall, but on re-enabling it , it worked My advice for anyone doing the upgrade to windows 10 ... de install ESET Smart Security, use the removal tool in safe mode , and only then do the windows 10 update Once the update is all completed, re-install Smart Security
-
9+ months to fix and still excuses from ESET, add this to the fact that functions available in the windows product 2+ years ago are still not in the Mac version shows how low on their priorities Mac Home software is I'm now looking at alternate suppliers for my Antivirus, once I find a suitable one I will cancel my subscriptions
-
Still no sign of a new release or a fix to this issue ESET Cyber Security Pro makes my Mac way slower than a Windows PC to shut down, I think I'll uninstall it again and await the next release

Yosemite : Airdrop not working on Cyber Security Pro
Weety replied to Weety's topic in ESET Cyber Security Pro (for Mac)
Are you currently able to successfully use AirDrop (finding the device and complete a file transfer both ways) without ECSP installed? Without ESET installed Airdrop works fine With it installed it first objects to AWLD0 and UTUN0 devices (it thinks they want DHCP), if I say these are HOME network it still occasionally falters, and AIRDROP does not work both ways (Mac -> iPhone and vice versa) As it stands ECSP definitely needs work around Airdrop/Handoff/Continiuity I'm currently running without it as it's become too much of a hassle to work around it when issues occur -
Yosemite : Airdrop not working on Cyber Security Pro
Weety replied to Weety's topic in ESET Cyber Security Pro (for Mac)
Personally no, it was happening with version 5 as well. This issue still exists on the latest build/modules -
Any idea when this build will be released as this bug has been present a long while
-
Perhaps it'll appear before the documentation for the current release appears.....
