That could be what I was seeing when I "thought" I was seeing a self (by EIS) initiated scan....twice. And I also have seen the action buttons greyed out. Ended up having to reboot.

Yes there are still some issues on scanning. https://forum.eset.com/topic/15011-incomplete-in-depth-scan/?do=findComment&comment=74915 My results are inconsistent. I am still working with US Support. I believe I even had 2 mystery scans self-initiate (showed as a scheduled scan). They were NOT initiated by a detection or a scan setting. I am still testing and logging.

Click on your name (upper right hand corner) while being logged in, then click on profile. Once there, click on "see my activity". It should be listed there.

Well the in-program update came through and I updated to 11.1.42.1 and guess what? The issue with the In-depth scan NOT scanning all the files (scheduled or on demand) is now back. What in blazes is going on? This is getting very old and tiring. I still have a trouble ticket open (for many months now). I have advised support of the same.

More Facebook goodness. https://www.apnews.com/be7061443c5841c78cea6a75bf3f2fee/Facebook-faces-scrutiny-for-pulling-Android-call,-text-data

Yes I'd be interested in knowing that as well. I also use Ghostery to assist in blocking (in addition to other means). Many folks these days lack the common sense that supports self preservation. A total stranger could call them and they reveal their personal information over the phone without thinking twice about it.

Hello Camelia. Here's a link to the latest version live installer. If what Marcos says is correct, you should get 11.0.159.9. https://support.eset.com/kb2476/ Here is the link to older versions. https://support.eset.com/kb2885/ Regards, Tom

I hope Mark's apology helps everyone feel better. I also heard he is willing to testify before a (Senate...I believe) sub-committee (he might not have a choice). I'm good with it......as I do not use Facebook or other social media. The following is from Reuters. https://www.reuters.com/article/us-facebook-cambridge-analytica-stocks/facebook-investors-fret-over-costs-as-zuckerberg-apologizes-idUSKBN1GY1GI Not being a Facebook user I have not paid that much attention to the details, but so much for privacy.

Hello jems....good to see you again. I hope all is well on your end. For my scheduled scans I always use an In-depth scan. This keeps my OCD satisfied. https://support.eset.com/kb3207/ *************************************************** As I am currently using 11.0.159.9 and the in-depth scans are now working, I hope nothing changes with the version upgrade to 11.1.42 https://forum.eset.com/topic/15027-eset-internet-security-v1101599-update-to-v11142/?do=findComment&comment=74591

Marcos, not sure what to tell you but as of today BOTH manual/on demand/in-depth and scheduled In-depth scans are now scanning all files. This issue started late last year with scheduled in-depth scans being restricted. I have not heard back on the trouble ticket opened Nov (?) 2017 (2nd request with no reply) so I do not know if something occurred because of that. I have be playing around with the on-demand scans the past few days to see what's what. With the version update on 3.19.18, the manual on-demand in-depth scans also became restricted. So I guess (for the moment) all appears to be well. I'll see what happens in the next few days. You can see the # of files scanned in the attached. I changed nothing in EIS set-up. By the way, all scans showed zero infected/cleaned files.

Smart Optimization is not enabled. I could enable logging, but I now cannot get EIS to scan all 2.1M files, so I could not compare 2 "new" scan logs. Previously (when I opened the trouble ticket) it was only occurring on a scheduled In-depth scan. What I have been doing to achieve my desired result, was manually initiating a custom (administrator) scan. But now that is not scanning all the files as it was previous to the latest update. In reviewing the logs I can compare, I do see no password protected files that weren't able to be opened since the 3.19.18 update. I see many unopened password protected files in the logs prior to the 3.19.18 update. But just by a rough estimate, they nowhere nearly add up to a difference of 1.675M files. I do think something may be amiss. I am awaiting Support to get back to me so I can advise them of this latest turn in events.

Since the latest update to v11 (on 3.19.18), when I run an In-depth scan (manually activated), it is now only scanning about 425,000 objects in about 30 minutes. Prior to the 3.19.18 update, it would take about 2 hours and scan about 2.1 million objects. This is disturbingly similar to what I reported to ESET US Support (there is an open case I believe) back in Nov 2017 (I think) where scheduled In-depth scans were also abbreviated (again after a module update). As a matter of fact it appears to be identical. I have verified my settings for the In-depth scan. I can provide the case # if necessary. I sent Support a e-mail previously and did not receive a reply. I just sent another one today. Last I heard on 12.4.17 was "I will send you an update once I have further results from this latest build" (which was 11.0.154.0). I thought I posted something about this previously on the forum, but as of now I cannot locate it. The machine is Win 7 with EIS installed (11.0.159.9). This appears to have not been addressed. Perhaps another user can quantify my results.

Thank you Peter.

English is a multi faceted language originating in the West Germanic language group. See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/English_language Whilst I cannot speak for ESET, I suspect the reasoning for showing the American flag is driven by population numbers who could be using said language. Perhaps a more reasonable request would be to show both the American and UK flags. But I am sure that would draw ire from people in other countries who also use English as their main language. It could be like the proverbial dog chasing it's own tail. Just my opinion. As I do not know, what flags are shown for the other languages?

I also use the Element, but have never seen what you are referring to. Can you post a screen shot?

If you would re-read my question, I asked whom....not why or what.

It almost got by me....Happy PI Day to all the ESET Staff, forum members and visitors. Be sure to have a slice! http://www.piday.org/

Whom are you asking?

Thanks to everyone who responded. I knew the collective experience of the forum members would provide me with much to consider. Should anyone have anything to add please feel free. Thanks again! It is much appreciated. ************************************************ 3.8.18....I also found a similar thread over at Wilders...so I have much to review.

I'm looking at adding a VPN. I have a Windows 7 PC and a couple Apple devices. What's your favorite VPN and why is it your favorite? What VPN would you Not use and why?

Hello Jan & hayc59. We are glad you are here. Jan, Shehab & jaypeecee sorry for my tardiness...I've been pre-occupied a bit. Welcome to the forum.

Yes ESET does not hog down on your PC performance. As far as default settings is concerned, that's the beauty of ESET's set-up tree. I use some default settings and fine tune (to my own taste) some other ones. Not all of us are PC gurus that know everything there is to know of PCs.

I know it's not he same thing, but you could use the "unread content" function for new posts.

Yes, I too have received update e-mails on a couple topics I chose to follow. So the magic button must be working. Or maybe Igor finally "flipped the switch".

Well I just did get an e-mail notification for your reply. I had logged out of the forum. I did get a real time notification (while I was logged in) the other day for someone liking one of my post. So maybe it's a hit and/or miss thing? I also just added a "follow" for me on a couple of threads....we'll see what happens.
