Does clearing your browser cache make any difference?

How to stop automatic build or version upgrade please
peteyt replied to Rick_27's topic in ESET NOD32 Antivirus
Oh I understand. As newer versions come out there's often going to be issues so I can see why people often stay behind, especially in regards to business. My point however was that there is no guarantee that the conflict that happens with your screenshot program will be fixed because someone has to report it for Eset to know there's an issue. I work as a service desk assistant and we often get calls about people who've had issues for ages but one day decide to finally report it and they aren't happy that it's been ongoing for ages. The issue is that half the time it's user specific and so until they made the call we had no idea the issue was effecting them -

I will also add that while I understand that some people don't won't to or might not have the time to report bugs, it's never a good idea to presume they will just be fixed. The issue is that there are so many different software and hardware combinations. It might be that no other member has the same setup that causes the bug that you have or uses the program that conflicts with Eset -
I will also add that each post related to similar issues can be a number of things. Often I'll see people post but never reply back and give the requested logs. The first post linked mentions 2 AVs which could have also caused conflicts. I'm not trying to defend Eset here, just stating that often things that look the same can actually be many other things

I've seen mine do it occasionally. Maybe something has been updated? Also check the website bellow as some phone manufacturers make it hard to have apps running in the background https://dontkillmyapp.com/

Dailymotion Trojan dropper. False positive?
peteyt replied to peteyt's topic in Malware Finding and Cleaning
I uninstalled this when I got the alert and reinstalled today seems to be fine now so presume it was a false positive -

I'd recommend creating an account as only select users can see and interact with the guest part -
Proposal for optimization of Eset Mobile Security
peteyt replied to Anton Todorov's topic in ESET Products for Mobile Devices
Would it be beneficial to have a future changes form on this forum (mobile forum) as there doesn't appear to be one currently -
Scheduled Scans
peteyt replied to Aryeh Goretsky's topic in ESET Internet Security & ESET Smart Security Premium
Suggesting a separate option to completely hide rather than fade the green border on browsers when browser protection is enabled. I actually think it's a good idea to fade to show that it's enabled but there's a lot of posts from people who aren't pleased. Wondering if it would be worth this with a warning. I mean can't you disbale the AV and Firewall and hide the warnings? If so I suppose it's not much different -
Green Border (Chrome)
peteyt replied to a topic in Quick questions by guests (registration not required)
What Marcos meant is when the green frame is disabled it will still show up briefly on launching the browser. This is so that you can still see the browser protection is working -
I've often suggest a way to remove dead rules which I'm hoping they'll implent and also to be able to rearrange rules by names as well as an icon representing the apps

I voted equal for the footprint as I still find it's slow on start up, with the updates and start of scan but my computer 9 years old and think it's just getting slow in general. I'd like to see more options for ransomware like the option to roll back, protected folders. Excited to see the firewall rules and wildcard for hips.

Need help to scan UEFI
peteyt replied to Ueseter's topic in ESET Internet Security & ESET Smart Security Premium
A lot of files are locked so won't scan. As Marcos shows in the screenshot the BCD logs are always locked. If you want to be extra safe, flash the BIOS. One issue is even if an AV found a virus on the BIOS/UEFI it can't remove, you need to flash still -
Can ESET Smart Security Premium Access the BIOS Chip?
peteyt replied to just's topic in Malware Finding and Cleaning
You keep asking the same questions after we have answered. The simple thing is any kind of malware, eset should be able to detect. The only thing it may not detect is stuff that is new e.g. zero day vulnerabilities that have not been found yet. The only problem is bios, UEFI etc. malware, AVs can only detect but they cannot remove - you will need to flash it. However these are generally targeted at high targets. Like Nightowl said government may want to steal state secrets from another government but there's no real point in trying to infect someone like us because there'd be no point. Either accept you are not infected or flash it - there's no more answers anyone can give you. -

peteyt replied to just's topic in Malware Finding and Cleaning
Just flash it. If the AV is not detecting it your probably be okay but if your unsure flash it. There's nothing anyone else can really add anymore -
Secure payment browser crashing
peteyt replied to khaled22's topic in ESET Internet Security & ESET Smart Security Premium
Do you mean disable or uninstall? If there are remnants e.g. drivers it could possibly be still causing conflicts
