  1. @ Itman

    Totally wrong I'm afraid.

    @ Everybody else

    I bought the amazon offering for the actual price that it was offered at, viz £23.99. It is a full retail offering and installed and activated without any issues. Also, the UK's biggest electronics retailer (Currys) is also selling the same item at the same price.

    Eset must be off their rocker if they think that I am going to renew at £75 when there are such cheaper deals available.

    So to all of you who can do no better than to  spread FUD, you are wasting your money if you do not investigate further.

  2. The source is 110% trustworthy (Amazon) and the price has dropped to £23.99!!!

    Let's just forget that price at the moment (I won't) Eset is the most expensive option for me INCLUDING the loyalty discount. I could not get AV protection for eset's price anywhere else if I tried. Everybody seems to be offering new user discounts of up to 50%. One has to know where to find them...sometimes on has to setup an order and either cancel it or not complete it to get the best discount.

    The phrase about shooting one's self in one's foot springs to mind.

  3. Eset is being very short sighted.

    I have 6 licences to renew at £75, yet I can not only get 10 licences of Kaspersky Internet Security for £29.99, every anti-virus seller is offering significant discounts (up to 50%) that make staying with eset too expensive and they will not budge on their price, saying that includes the loyalty discount!

  4. Hi Phoenix,

    I have been using ESET on 6 PCs for the last few years and it is only recently that the program update feature has actually done something. I don't know if 10.1.240.0 has been pulled, but I still have a PC here that will not update its 10.0.390.0.

    Cheers

  5. I have six partitions available in my Win 7 install. If I try to exclude a program on any other drive other than C:, the interface locks up and I have to reboot. It gets washed out, gets black boarders in each window and if I just log off and log on, the advanced options are empty. Not impressed with 10.1.240.0.

  6. Thanks for your answers, I will check the config here further. @Marcos, I will post back again if I still see problems, but I will wipe my exclusions lists first. Excluding individual items seems to work okay, but bloacking a folder using *.* does not seem to. Having major surgery in a few days so it will be a while...

  7. I have placed a correct path to exclude from scanning, but every time I run the particular program, I get lots of "Potentially unsafe application found" warnings. It is a set of utilities that are perfectly legal and safe. How can I stop these warnings?

     

    Thanks

  8. Hi Marcos,

     

    I came to the ESET site after seeing that 9.0.381 was available on MajorGeeks. The download page (see UPDATE below for URL) that one accesses from the UK site's home page STILL lists 9.0.375. The like you gave about has 381 available.

     

    Just for your info about the site error.

     

    Cheers

    UPDATE:- Here is the URL hxxp://www.eset.co.uk/Download/Software/Product/EAVHfor the page I mentioned above.

  9. Hi Marcos,

     

    It just told me that an upgrade/update was not available on several computers. I have a total of 6 licences. I did not that only the 375 is available for download as I do prefer to have the full installation file stored locally.

     

    Regards

  10. OK, it's true that you have to be careful about everything you download from every site. However, MajorGeeks has been the only software distributors I trust. BTW, this beta has been working fine so far on Windows 10.

    I agree 120%! I have been using MajorGeeks for *years*, visiting several times daily as they update very frequenctly. I have NEVER got anything bad at all, ever, never. They are great at having releases well before they appear on the program makers' own sites.

     

    If somebody catches something from MajorGeeks, they should not be using the internet as NO site will ever be safe enough for them.

  11. I do not wish to take risks with security software by installing "pre-release updates" - that sounds like beta software. I would hazard a guess that that would not be a popular choice amongst your customer base. How long does it normally take for the pre-release patch to be released?
