Hello and welcome to the forum! 1. I tried to research on Jetico's forums but they seem to be down. 2. Jetico personal firewall has a new version out, are you running their latest version? 3. According to their website, you can create rules to allow specific applications (much like ESS), have you attempted this? Your post says you enabled logging, but I don't see based on your post that you have actually attempted to create a rule to allow ESET NOD32. 4. The easy route would be to uninstall ESET using hxxp://kb.eset.com/esetkb/soln2289&ref=esf 5. After reboot make sure your firewall is running as expected, and install NOD32 again 6. Pay attention to any notifications that pop-up, they might be asking you whether you want to allow or block ESET. 7. If this doesn't work, contact Jetico support for help with configuring their software to work with ours since it is the firewall that must be configured to allow ESET in this case.
