you think that the company will support a retired OS forever? no! 2-3 more versions and they might discontinue it. think about it. when OS companies (linux, microsoft, apple, etc.) stop supporting their older products, it means that no new features and security updates are released for the retired products, which in turn mean that since no security updates are released, it is left vulnerable to whatever attack may rise in the future. and if a vulnerability X won't be patched in the OS, the AV company will have to make huge efforts to try and lower the impact on the affected computers. that costs time, money and a lot of work from the developers. but everyone can start saving money to buy one in the future

also be warned that eset wont support win xp for a long time, maybe in version 10 or 11 they will drop support. having an OS without security updates leaves you EXTREMELY vulnerable and a AV won't help much if security holes are discovered by attackers in XP. you should consider getting a new pc and upgrading to win 8 or 10

just because you lost the internet conenction for 3 seconds, doesnt mean that you were flooded or a ddos attack was performed against you. with every new major version the firewall is upgraded and made even more secure than the last. so as long as you stay updated in both the OS (in your case Win XP is no longer supported and you should consider upgrading to a newer OS), and you keep your AV updated you will be fine.

and obviously you started it in the wrong section. anyway MS is downloading the upgrade to eligible computers even if you didn't select to reserve it, in case you decide later that you want it and you don't have to wait for the entire OS to download to the computer. after all the upgrade process won't start unless you explicitly select to start it.

they are detected as PUA=potentialy unwanted applications. something in the installers, probably a toolbar or some advertisements are teh cause of the block. you can temporarily disable the firewall and install the programs, assuming you download them from the original website

Microsoft Crippling Windows Updates on Windows 7
shocked replied to Super_Spartan's topic in General Discussion
before accusing someone learn proper english. despise not despite now there could be tens of issues as to why the download is stuck at 0% or at 99% for hours. also most of the updates are cumulative and some replace the others so if a few years back you downloaded 200 updates after the format, and now only 100 is visible, that means that the other updates are replaced by newer ones. also some updates take very long time to install, for example the .Net Framework. -

by downloading the beta and letting it upgrade to whatever it will find, it will be the same as the final product? and what about the license key? -
telemetry data will always be sent over to microsoft one way or another, it's by design.

shocked replied to Jurre's topic in ESET Beta Products for Home Users
i had no problems to use the removal tool in safe mode. try it again. and after starting the pc to safe mode, go to the folder where you saved the file and right-click it and run it as administrator. then follow the instructions. -

i use win 10 and eset ss 8.0.319.0, there is a slight slow down but i guess it must be the OS since it's new and there might be issues untill several updates are released and solve most of them.

What does this result mean?
shocked replied to camelia's topic in ESET Internet Security & ESET Smart Security Premium
it's very easy to update with the in product mechanism or by downloading the full package. but people are used to the old stuff and they won't let go -

What does this result mean?
shocked replied to camelia's topic in ESET Internet Security & ESET Smart Security Premium
you can use your existing license to the new version. also the "error opening" it could also mean that the files are used/locked by a windows or another process and thus they can't be opened. stay safe that they are always scanned during startup or shutdown of the pc. -
