ptcman 1 Posted August 11, 2017 Share Posted August 11, 2017 Today my ESET NOD32 got updated to the latest version 10.1.219.0. From that point on Mozilla Thunderbird cannot connect to my email accounts, getting always a time out message. When I pause ESET protection Thunderbird automatically is able to connect to all my email accounts. Why is the new ESET version blocking Thunderbird?

Administrators Marcos 5,069 Posted August 11, 2017 Administrators Share Posted August 11, 2017 Try the following: - restart Windows - without launching any application, open the advanced setup, disable SSL/TLS scanning and click OK - re-enable SSL/TLS scanning and click OK - launch Thunderbird Was the problem solved?

Thanks Marcos. Thunderbird recently started taking up to a minute to connect to my email account, using the setting you posted it now connects immediately.

PiWi 0 Posted August 28, 2017 Share Posted August 28, 2017 Hi, Got recently the same problem on 3 machines after installing updates. Is it necessary to switch this setting ( SSL/TLS scanning ) off and back on after each start-up of Windows? If so, can I also leave it off, as not all users are familiar with this? What will be the risk whit SSL/TLS scanning permanently off? Regards, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
