Seriously? Lol. What do you have to hide? I love all these paranoid anti Google people. I use Google everything.

I do not have any issues with CCleaner full version and Eset. i also have PUPs enabled. It is detecting the Chrome installer or the Google toolbar installer. If you have Chrome installed already you will never see the alert anyways. It's nothing malicious. It's npt like Piriform is using Open Candy.

Disable Windows Defender also. Keep in mind that Windows 8 comes with real time security running unlike 7.

That's why you need to take these tests with a grain of salt. But people base their security setups on the results of these kinds of testing. Watch how many people start using Avast again just cause AVTest.org voted it #1 in detection. But yet for almost a year it was on the bottom.

I have a 105MB connection so I never notice anything. Try using the pre release updates in Eset as suggested in other areas of the forums.

Any one who is anyone knows that 99% of av companies release new versions around Q3. We are still in Q1. Check back around the beginning of Q3.

Lighter? Lol.................It is already the lightest av out there. no AV-TEST Lol.............................I guess you don't get around much. Just cause one company say's its performance is poor that's how your basing your post? The true test is how an av actually feels on your system. FYI..............Eset is #1 according to AV Comarivies. hxxp://www.av-comparatives.org/wp-content/uploads/2014/11/avc_per_201410_en.pdf

@ TomFace thank you.

Well I am far from young (just turned 45). And yes the true test of something is to actually try it on your system. Everyone has different pc's with different specs. So of course every product will perform differently. But when you have a a core i7 with 12GB of ram nothing should slow down your system. But unfortunately they do, As far as testing goes sometimes you think there is a conspiracy. AV Comparatives gives Eset a #1 rating in performance and a good rating in detection. AVTest gives poor ratings. 2+2 doesn't always equal 4. Just like Bitdefender is always a top scorer but their product is extremely buggy. Not for just me but thousands of other. Their support forum is a joke with 90% of posts going unanswred for weeks or months. The black screen login delay as been plaguing every Bitdefender user for about a year now. It's still not addressed. Kaspersky has had slow updates for years. Still not addressed. All Kaspersky tells you to do is submit a GSi log for them to look over.

Lol.........Eset Nod32 zero day sucks? Then why is it I can go to Malc0de or any other site daily and Eset catches 99% of things. Most of the time 100% of links Eset detects. Malwaretips has downloadable malware packs daily. Eset detects 99% of them. Again please this is not an argument. I posted my opinion based on using various security solutions out there. If F-Secure is so good then use it Margos and go to the F-Secure forum. Check out this AV Comparatives on performance tests. Eset is #1 and F-Secure is ranked 13th. hxxp://chart.av-comparatives.org/chart1.php My post was not to argue which av is the best. My post was mainly to praise Eset and ask the question "Why do so many companies release security products with tons of bugs". As in matter of fact Avast released a version, I think the when the 2015 one came out without all components even working. But yes this was an official release and not a beta.

True dat! Also Eset is top choice in several countries according to the latest survey taken. hxxp://www.av-comparatives.org/wp-content/uploads/2015/03/security_survey2015_en.pdf

I got a free 90 days of F-Secure. Installed it and rebooted. Open up Process Explorer to find out it was using like 200-300MB of ram. Never mind it has a GUI inside a GUI. One main one and another one. Only had it installed for 48 hours. Was unimpressed.

On the contrary Eset is rank #1 by AV Comparatives which is a much more reputable company. I have tried just about everything out there and I find Eset to be the lightest. hxxp://www.av-comparatives.org/wp-content/uploads/2014/11/avc_per_201410_en.pdf

Why are so many security products filled with bugs and released to the public? Are we just all beta testers? Well except in the case of Eset Nod32. Hats off to ya guys for a mighty fine product. I have been away but now I am back. I have tried practically everything out there. My laptop is far from a slouch too. Windows 7 64bit I might add. Here is a list: Norton IS = Slow updates, always doing something in the background, slow to catch malware, poor detection rate Bitdefender IS = Increases overall boot time, black screen before logging in, only 1 person to reply to forum support, slows your system down a lot Kaspersky IS = Slow updates, Slow opening of GUI, Slow to load after logging in, heavy on system after weeks Avira = Constant rescanning of malware once detected, out dated GUI, Runs several processes AVG Free = Uses a lot of ram, runs 6-8 processes, increases overall boot time, poor detection rate 360 Total Security = High rate of false positives, web shield is very slow to react, leaves a lot behind when uninstalled, no support forum Avast Free = Detection rate has gone down hill, too much non security related stuff packed with it, annoying ads wanting you to upgrade Comodo IS = High false positives, lots of pop ups, default configuration misses most malware Webroot = Can take weeks to detect malware but it limits what the malware can do F- Secure IS = Extremely heavy Panda Free = 0 day malware detection is ok, slows system down at times, full scan took 6 hours Trend Micro = Heavy on system That about sums it up. I could get more in depth but you guys get the jist of it. I would say that other then Eset Nod32 Webroot and Panda Free rank up there. I like to try different products so i can tell my customers what to use. I am also a fan of Kaspersky but again it seems like they are always releasing patches to correct the bugginess. Mainly slow as hell updates. My laptop boots up in about 30 seconds from a cold boot. With BIS or KIS it increases to about 50-60 seconds. Even after a boot defrag and a disk defrag. With Eset it takes about 35 seconds. Eset Nod32's detection rate is also top notch. I can go to malC0de any day and it stops everything. But then why does AV Comparatives and AVTest rate it so poorly? AV Comparatives gives 360 almost perfect scores but yet anytime I have tested it it does horrible and has a high false positive detection rate. The only thing I can say Eset is lacking is an up to date GUI. Other then that it's perfect. I tried every product for at least 2 weeks. KIS I was using for 2 months. I am not throwing all these other products under the bus. I am just giving my honest opinion after spending time with each one. I just wish Eset would start getting the respect it deserves.

Ever since GPS's have come out locations are not completely accurate. Being a block or 2 away is not all that bad. Now if you are talking about being miles away that is different.

Excuse me people. But MBAM Pro was designed to run along side any antivirus. Is is needed? No. But since the OE poster has yet to come back we have nothing else to go on. MBAM is not an antivirus program. if you make the proper exclusions it works just fine.

I know what forum you speak of. It is a forum filled with young kids. Early teens. Most of them are using their parents pc as a malware testing environment. They install a free VM and post YouTube videos. They throw 10-15 malicious URL's at something every 2-3 seconds. Then see how many it detects. Rather dumb I say. When they test Panda Free they see it failing. But yet AV.Test, AV Comparatives and VB 100 rate it 99%. AV Comparatives gives it a 100%. So then these young teens insist that Panda is paying off all these companies and making themselves look better. Bottom line is nothing is 100% effective. Everything will let something in someday. Best defense is to have a good backup. AV Comparatives gave Kaspersky a product of the year award. Does it mean they paid them off? Did Eset pay them off? No. I have seen computers infected and the customers all had different antiviruses. Keep in mind that most malware infections are self inflicted. The majority of the problem is between the seat and the keyboard. Eset makes a great product and I stand by it.

This is the article he is speaking of. But he is better off booting of his Windows installation cd and doing a repair. Bit repairs usually never work. hxxp://www.sevenforums.com/tutorials/3413-repair-install.html

Windows ISO downloads hxxp://www.techverse.net/download-windows-7-iso-x86-x64-microsofts-official-servers/

Eset staff is to cover Eset problems. I fix pc's on a daily basis. Doing things from within Windows never works properly. Using a bootable disk is always best. I see he mounted a stored image but obviously that image was corrupted. Maybe he has an older image. Easiest thing to do is not use IE. Install either Firefox or Chrome and be done with it. . He can always uninstall Eset. Do what he needs to do. Reinstall Eset. More then one way to skin a cat. No offense to anyone on the Eset team. We are all here to help each other.

99% of computers come with a recovery partition. Backup your files. Reboot into the recovery partition and your done. All the info you will need is in your manual. This is also why keeping a good system image backup is handy. You can also download the right ISO from Microsoft and make a bootable disk or a USB stick. That will allow you to reinstall and or repair Windows. Over the top installs never work.

Thread is dead. OE poster has not been back.

You forgot that he is also using MBAM Pro. So he is wondering if all 3 will work together. But I suggest removing Hitman Pro.Alert and disabling MBAM Pro real time protection. Eset and MBAE play just fine together. My combo.

Nothing wrong with layered security. Hitman Pro.Alert as I said is very much still beta. And it only alerts. Does not remove or prevent. MBAM Pro is not really necessary when running Eset. But there is nothing wrong with MBAE. It is a very small program that just sits there and works effectively.
