Hi Marcos, again thanks for the reply. I won't be able to do the log dump for a few months now as we are heading south for the winter! When I was playing around with the issue and using the interactive mode the programme that was identified was the compiled version of the programme I was debugging in Visual Studio. That is, if I was writing a programme in VS called TEST then when debugging it would be TEST.EXE that was identified by the interactive mode, there was no reference to VS. It's not the end of the world having to make an entry for each programme, I am just lazy!!! Thanks

Thanks Marcos, the application is reading UDP Data broadcast over WiFi on the house LAN. I was surprised that it was blocked as nothing was going to the outside world. I used the interactive mode to "write" the first rule then just used that as a basis for others. That's doable, but every time I write a new programme then I have to write a corresponding rule. I was hoping that there would be someway of writing a rule that would encompass all programmes writen by visual studio while running them in the debug mode. Thanks

Hi I am using Internet security 12.0.31.0 and have just started "playing" with visual studio. After a bit of frustration with developing a couple of projects that accessed the internet I realised the problem wasn't with my code, rather ESET was blocking access to the file I had created. Initially I solved this by turning off the firewall, then soon after I wrote a rule to allow the firewall to let the code run. Rather than develop ma rule for every project, is there a rule that can be written to allow any visual studio code being debugged to have access to the web, i.e. apply the rule to VS rather tham each individual project? Thanks.

Glad something was found Thanks for the update.

Well, things are going from bad to worse, my laptop that had been working fine with Win 8.1 ESS 8 now refuses to connect to the forum site mentioned above, having successfully connected for the last couple of months. Guess another computer will be reverting to ESS 7

Thanks Peter, seems that there is at least one other user of the visual micro forums has just had the same issue start with firefox after having access for some time.

Funny you should ask! I just uninstalled v8 and went back to v7 and everything is good. However I am still using v8 on my laptop and it is working just fine.

I have recently upgraded from Win 7 to Win 8.1 on my desktop. I installed Smart Security 8 but have a problem with one Web Site. I can connect to www.visualmicro.com using chrome with no issues, but if I then select forums www.visualmicro.com/forums I get the following: This webpage is not available The webpage at hxxp://www.visualmicro.com/forums/ might be temporarily down ot it may have moved permanently yo a new web address Error Code ERR_CONTENT_DECODING_FAILED I get similar messages from Firefox and IE9 as well. BUT, if I uninstall ESET the problem goes away for all browsers. Reinstalling ESET and the problem returns. If I just Temporarily disable protection the forums remain blocked. To make this even more bizzare I have windows 8.1 on my Laptop with ESET and there is NO problem accessing the forums at all. I have tried excluding the address from filtering but to no avail. It appears that ESET is introducing something into the system to cause the problem at a deeper level, can anyone help solve the problem? Thanks
