The way I see it, and put to let updating manually, as I do here on mine. remembering that if you choose to leave it manually you have to always update during the day of use. 😁
Problem is you'd have to check a few times each day to make sure you had the latest updates as they are released a few times daily usually.
When it comes to security I'd rather have it on automatic myself so I know it's up to date

Well, actually I think I found the data breach which exposed my account name and password.It's an online gaming website which had the data breach in 2019, I was a member of them.
Still I don't understand why Chrome didn't warn me about my exposed account name and password combination much earlier...
It's worth signing up to https://haveibeenpwned.com which alerts you for breaches. If you sign up it will show you all the websites that your email address has been breached on

This is disappointing, but not unexpected. The problem is that I despise Windows 10 and can only barely tolerate Windows 7.
As ESET 9 was probably the only AV that could allow me to use the OS that I preferred, I gladly renewed without "shopping" for alternatives. Now ... nothing to stop me from looking for another vendor. Too bad after 15 years using this product.
By the way, I'm on my XP box using RDP to access a Win7 "drone" to use Firefox. I have needed this for some time to access some websites, such as my bank, that cut off XP with claims of "safety Issues." Seriously, they wouldn't know a safety issue if one smacked them in the head. I have not had a single issue with XP that ESET NOD32 has not dealt with cleanly in 15 years. In the last 10, I can't recall seeing a detection that wasn't me playing with something that MS doesn't like, so the AV community tries to kill it.
So please don't tell me my XP is not "safe." It is as safe as the user makes it. I know, I know ... the vast majority of users do not have my knowledge and experience and need corporations to look out for them. But when self-serving behemoths like MS do that, they sure seem to be looking to enhance their own revenue. I would have paid for a more compact and efficient version of XP with a consistent user interface that isn't trying to look like Apple.
I think letting the technically capable think for themselves would not be a bad thing. But what do I know? I've only been "doing" computer stuff since 1972.
It was good run. Thank you ESET for hanging on this long. Maybe I'll stick with you. Depends on how much you raise your prices in our greed driven economy.
I understand your point but for me personally there's always a risk when using a non supported OS. It's not patched anymore and so when something does get found it puts everyone who uses it at risk.
An AV might be able to potentially help but I've always felt it's a prison with a hole in the fence. You can have security that is good but nothing changes the fact there's a gapping hole in the fence.

Just an update, it was recognized and confirmed as a bug in the forum's software.
Ah good. Presume this is being looked at by them

Hi, I was able to reproduce this, thanks for reporting.
I will raise this issue with the forum developers.
Thanks for the reply. Noticed it for a month or so. Presume an update caused the issue

Yes, I do. But I don't use it in general, I just use it only 1 month to decide to buy it or not. Is it a crime? Okay, you can report to FBI about my crime.
The reason I mentioned it is you've been posting on here for longer than a month and have mentioned a lot about testing malware samples.
I wondered if the reason support was limited was because you where not a paying customer - eset do give support but that is limited for non paying customers.

I have a technical issue with ESET product, so I asked Ukrainian ESET support to help me resolve it. I have created new tickets again and again, but they close them all without any response about my technical issue. They just say something like "Don't write to us again! We will not help you!". I can provide names of their all and screenshots or files of their emails(on demand). I created tickets with these numbers: CS-27966, CS-28009, CS-28011.
Can I just ask, you mentioned a trial in a previous post. Are you using a trial version of eset

Do you mean notes in the password manager? Just wondering if you can confirm Eset is the culprit

I said this last time when this came up - there's been a few posts about this so to me it would make sense to have auto renewal as an opt in rather than an opt out.
You could even include a are you you don't want to enable this warning before the purchase is complete, informing the user the advantages etc.

I was looking at Kaspersky's partnership with INTEL, with protections and Hadware solutions and customers who use KASPERSKY don't need to have 9th to 10th generation machines.
https://www.kaspersky.com/partners
I could be wrong but I presume that is a different kind of partnership - it says they work with Intel and AMD etc. What Eset is doing is basically integrating its products to work with new features on intel chips but those features will not work on older systems without those chips/

It is odd that it only catches it on one computer.
Have you checked the other computers log files to see if it is maybe being blocked without alerting you

So will samples which are submitted via trial version of ESET product be analyzed more fast than samples which are submitted via email?
Do you have a trial version of eset?

I've noticed if you try to quote someone and then change your mind about the quote and try and delete it it just adds something like block quote but actually does not delete the quote.
I have been noticing this a while on Chrome for Android. Need to test on a desktop

😭 I am completely disappointed by this news. Look, I have a machine. but it's not a 10th Gen processor. I'm thinking this has turned into a White Elephant. unfortunately the vast majority of users will not use all thetechnology and protection it would provide. unfortunately, ESET you got this point wrong. 😥
ignore that it said it hadn't posted so I hit send and submitted it twice

If this is something hardware based then if you have hardware that doesn't support it it isn't going to work.
Eset isn't going to stop developing general features. Think of this as just a little added extra.

In the day when spammers sent me them they were valid.
No AV can be perfect - but it's also hard to look back - Eset may have blocked the links in time as well as other AV's but it is hard to know this now as the links do not exist

So it took Eset almost 3 weeks to determine these drivers were malicious ..........🙄
BTW - these driver samples should be reported to Microsoft which still doesn't detect them so that their code signing certificates are revoked.
I'd be curious to hear from Eset why it took 3 weeks.
I understand they will need to do some testing but presume some is automated. I presume they also get a lot of submissions. But the issue I have is that in between those 3 weeks many people may have been infected which will be alarming to those people if they heard it was submitted a while ago and yet has only just been added as a signature

But scam are always spam, right? Scam files can't be not spam. ESET products protect against spam, so they shout detect them.
if the links no longer work then surely it does not matter?

@Marcos Why can't ESET Windows product detect these threats?
I'd also add I'm a little bit confused as you say eset windows but show a screenshot of your mobile

No. I tested both products with 8k+ modern malwares, ESET detects malwares better than MBAM, BUT there are a lot of malwares which were detected by MBAM and were compromised by ESET, so there is a reason to use them both.
The thing is you can use them together but there is always a potential risk.
Think of it this way - 2 security products realtime protection both detect something but as they do at the same time it causes issues as both try to block the same file. You could argue that the result could actually be that neither block it because of this and the virus gets through.
Most people would as mentioned above only have 1 realtime AV. You can try both but there's always a risk but it depends if your willing to take that risk. If not just use the free version and run on demand scans

Yeah this is the best idea and using a password manager can also help with this. If you have the premium version, eset includes one.
Another option is to have hard to guess passwords for important stuff at least and enable 2fa where possible. I know people who also use a certain email address for sites they don't want to link to their main email. This can also be good for spam
