Have had any issues such as having something malicious and not detecting it ? Overall how has your experience been ?

They are a bit too expensive for me, since I have to buy for 3 laptops I was looking at the internet security to buy it for one laptop, for example if 2 have the normal NOD32 and the internet security, it should protect the wi-fi even if one of the other 2 gets infected and spreads it via the wi-fi , right ?

All my laptops have ADP, for the time being i havent noticed anything, lets say the worst happens and something malicious spread via wi-fi , will the in depth scan detect it? Since we are connected in the same network ( sorry maybe a noob question) My Windows Defender Firewall - Private network - not connected , Guest or public networks - connected o.O is it normal ? As for the guest WIFI, will still be using the same internet , but different network therefore even if its infected cannot spread to the other devices ? If i have wi-fi issues i usually call my internet provider and they change settings, passwords and so on

Sorry forgot to clarify, the nod32 that its on my laptop that I watch movies etc, is provided by my internet and tv provider for free (when you have a contract with them for 1-2 + years)

We are using 2 laptops that uses the normal version of Nod32 - paid version, very carefully surfing the internet. And a 3rd laptop which has eset nod32 provided by my cable provider, this laptop we use to stream movies , and going into some 18+ sites, all 3 are connected to the same wi-fi network. My question is if the 3rd laptop gets infected from some of the sites, could it be transmitted to the other 2 via the wi-fi

Well the title says it all how do you guys scan especially when it takes 4 hours +, my laptop becomes a bit slower while scanning but if im not on it it turns off the idle , any suggestions ?

Hey itman, I saw that post but I didn't understand much 😕 . I just installed malwarebytes premium ( free trial ) to check for anything malicious. Should I disable push notifications on chrome ? What I've read on other thread was that even though I removed the program Ace Stream, there was something called roaming folder and had some leftovers from ace stream which I deleted it.

Hey I just saw that I have google chrome extension called ace script I think it was off ( not sure ) I removed it and ran both malwarebytes and nod32 av in depth scan it doesn't show anything. From what I've read it's a browser extension from ace stream (which I uninstalled long time ago) and sometimes the browser extension just reinstalls itself . Anyone had any issue like this and is it a malware or something ? Not sure how long have I had it since I thought I only had ABP Plus.

Thank you all for the input guys, I appreciate it !

Well I haven't noticed on neither of the protected computers to have browser issues, I ran Malwarebytes premium on the not protected one it found 3 pups. one was pup.optional.defaultsearch and 2 pup.optional.auslogicsdiskdefrag , couldn't find much info on the defaultsearch one just that it's pup, nothing to worry about ( not sure about that), well Im just gonna reinstall windows on the non-protected one and put Nod32 AV , i have a free one from my internet provider. God I wish I knew the difference between internet security and the normal Nod32 AV.

I thought that the Internet Security was just an extension to the Nod32 AV , I just saw the difference well I have the license for the normal AV for almost a year more. Have you heard of a router being infected that it bypasses the protection ( of my normal Nod32 AV).

Hey guys so I have 3 laptops and 1 phone , 2 of the laptops I have installed paid version of eset nod32 and we are really careful not to download anything shady apps , nor to go to any shady sites as well) . The third laptop I used to download torrents , watch something online and sometimes I visit adult site(just one reputable one) I dont really download anything anymore just watch some stuff online). I've had this laptop for 1.5-2 years now , it does regular updates I just checked it win 10 and (its security windows defender I think it is, under the Virus & threat protection is all green ) I didn't really care if it had viruses or not but today it crossed my mind that all our devices are connected to the same wi-fi network, now the other 2 laptops have passwords when logging and installed as I mentioned eset nod 32 av, but my phone doesn't have any av, only password for unlocking. For all the time I had this laptop connected to my wi-fi I didn't notice anything sketchy I was just wondering how possible is it or is it possible and if u guys heard anything like this happen before ? Oh the friend that gave me the laptop isn't really familiar with IT stuff and I know that he usually gave his laptop to reinstall windwos to one of his friensd I dont know if its relevant. As I said I haven't noticed anything wrong but I just popped in my mind today that we are all on the same wi-fi network , and should I be more careful ( if so how) with that 3rd laptop, basically for live streams since I can't really invest in AV for a 3rd laptop.

I tried to find the detection in tools - log files but it wasn't there is it because "cleaned by by deleting [1] " ? Could it be a problem if its deleted, but its a false positive ? And just to clarify its not a trojan , virus or anything malicious ?

Does your steam work properly ? My steam was working without any problems and I just did a random scan and found the same - controller_sourcemode_switches.xml - a variant of Generik.JYMBBNR trojan - cleaned by deleting [1] my AV automatically deleted it I hope its okay ? Any idea if it is a real trojan or just a steam thing ?

Yeah I just read that today and to add when f.e you google car's and there is an ad on facebook suggesting me cars. More like to see you whole internet behavior. I thought that, that was something directly targeted to me as if someone is just spying on every site i go into.

1 Thanks

Well that's the thing I don't know if I should be concerned or not. So what your assuming is that it might directed me to a tracker site which for example says "this person visits this sites" ? Shouldn't the AV detect this kind of stuff ? I have an idea where I got it from but its a site which is visited by millions of people, why it's targeted at me or its not targeted ? Why would some1 would harvest my web activities ?

I mean in the end it does the same job , right ?

Oh I see , so nothing to do with collecting my browser-related data, probably just redirected me there from one of the sports sites that I visit.

Just did in-depth scan all good, I have AdblockPlus is it any good ?

Hey people, (sorry if this is a stupid question) so I was checking my history and I just saw that I visited something called "gasurvey.gemius.com" I personally never visited this site (might be redirected) I googled it and it is something to collect my browser-related data ? Can someone more knowledgeable inspect it, because when I google it all I come to is this "gasurvey.gemius.com" and 1 more article, I never had pop-ups or anything I just noticed it in my browser history. All I understand is that someone is basically spying on everything I do on the internet ? Could someone not so retarded as me clarify me this 😕

Just out of curiosity has this ever happened to any others ?

Itman, helpful as always ! Cheers man !

Hey itman, thank you for the answer. I guess it was installed on my laptop, but just yesterday it did start upon when I started my laptop. I read somewhere that this might be caused when the app is updated or something, it is after all "Spotify" should be nothing shady about it ? Whats is your opinion on it ?

Hey people , today Spotify opened when I started my laptop/win10. Just wanted to ask if this ever happened to anyone of you guys ? And what could cause this ? I never installed spotify on my laptop.
