Hi, I got an Eset Proxy GUI alert. My internet was not connected. Wifi Off and laptop in airplane mode. I got an alert with a red header background. The notification came up on the screen and then went away. I plugged in my ethernet cable so I could send the data to Eset. But after a couple of minutes I got a message with the same red heading background that said it could NOT send the information from the alert to Eset.
I have been dealing with spyware/malware issues for a while now. I have tried everything and believe this could be some type of Graphical User interface attack. I'm sure Eset has experience with this type of notification. What can I do to protect myself? Aside from already having Eset running? Does disconnecting from the internet make my laptop MORE vulnerable? I disconnect my internet to do Web Development/Coding. (to prevent spyware/hacking) I thought having no internet would protect me but it seems like it is still happening and Eset is picking it up.
