John Dow gave kudos to Marcos in Does ESET scan the files of Thunderbird?
ESET scans email messages during the download through POP3(S) or IMAP(S). Real-time protection does not scan mailbox files on a disk. They are not scanned by the on-demand scanner by default either as scanning mailbox files requires "email files" to be enabled in the appropriate on-demand scan profile setup.

John Dow gave kudos to bentham in latest tor browser issue with live grid
Today's update (13.0.7) has a "small" version of tor.exe again (7,927,296 bytes) - and like the previous small version, it is being marked as suspicious by ESET. Replacing it with tor.exe from 13.0.6 fixes it for now.

John Dow gave kudos to Marcos in EAV 17.0.16.0 with "Browser Protection" enabled blocks Edge
Hard to say. Browser protection module 1337 was released for another group of users. If you want, you could check if the issue recurs after switching to the pre-release update channel and then back to the regular channel when the module 1336 would be downloaded.

Please carry on as follows:
Enable advanced logging under Help and support -> Technical support Launch Edge Reproduce the issue Stop logging Collect logs with ESET Log Collector and upload the generated archive here. Does the issue go away after uninstalling EAV v17.0.16 and returns after installing it from scratch?

John Dow gave kudos to howardagoldberg in EAV 17.0.16.0 with "Browser Protection" enabled blocks Edge
Just for the sake of telemetry .... I just updated ESET AV to 17.0.16 on two W10 Pro systems and no issues with the latest version of Edge (120.0.2210.77)

John Dow gave kudos to itman in EAV 17.0.16.0 with "Browser Protection" enabled blocks Edge
Temporarily disable this option and see if that solves the issue.

John Dow gave kudos to zathras in EAV 17.0.16.0 with "Browser Protection" enabled blocks Edge
No issues here. Posting this reply using latest ESET/Edge. Same versions as yours. I have no extensions loaded, just vanilla Edge.

John Dow gave kudos to bentham in latest tor browser issue with live grid
Yes I had the same problem and had to extract the updated tor.exe from the installer - I guess the torbrowser devs are having problems.

The problem has disappeared with newer version 13.0.5 -
John Dow gave kudos to bentham in latest tor browser issue with live grid
I'm not getting the issue after copying the updated file. It might be worth checking which version of tor.exe you have in case it didn't get updated (as in my post above).
Sizes of different versions (based on tor browser version):
v13.0.1 - 8,543,744 bytes v13.0.4 - 7,926,784 bytes (marked "suspicious") v13.0.5 - 8,547,840 bytes

John Dow gave kudos to bentham in latest tor browser issue with live grid
Many thanks for the heads up. After updating to 13.0.5, I can't work out if the update left my 13.0.1 tor.exe alone or reverted to it as it is still the same binary file.
EDIT - ok I downloaded the 13.0.5 installer and extracted tor.exe and it was a different file - not sure why the browser update process didn't fix this. Anyway the new tor.exe does fix the issue like you said so maybe there was something "suspicious" about the 13.0.4 release.

John Dow gave kudos to Marcos in Problem with depth-scan on-demand
This issue will be fixed via an automatic module update within 1-2 weeks. As a workaround, please unselect the registry in scan target selection.

John Dow gave kudos to Marcos in When or it will be there an addon for Thunderbird email scanning?
Support for Thunderbird was discontinued years ago. However, email received via IMAP(S) or POP3(S) in Thunderbird is scanned by ESET. It's just that you can't scan already received messsages on demand or that received messages are not scanned by ESET antispam. Otherwise malware should be normally detected in received email.

John Dow gave kudos to itman in Strange file in operating memory of the computer
Eset does not and cannot scan pagefile.sys, hiberfile.sys and swapfile.sys files. As your screen shot and my below screen shot shows, zero files were scanned;
If you are worried about malware in the pagefile, it can be cleared at system shutdown by setting appropriate registry key to do so. Or, via like Group Policy setting if you are running a Win Pro+ version.
Likewise, the hiberfil.sys and swapfile.sys files can be deleted by running appropriate command line option to disable Hibernation, rebooting, and then re-enabling Hibernation. The same also can be done via Group Policy option.

John Dow gave kudos to Marcos in FALSE ALERTS of System Informer
Process Hacker is indeed detected as a potentially unsafe application. System Informer cannot be misused in attacks, at least we have no information about a vulnerability that would allow it.

John Dow gave kudos to Marcos in I suggested this before...
The engine version used to be shown in the past, however, with the introduction of LiveGrid and pico updates the engine updates became less important which is why the product version is displayed in the tool tip in current versions. Needless to say that decisions about changes in gui are made after deep analysis in cooperation of several departments and it's not just a decision of a concrete person.
