x7007 4 Posted October 10, 2017 Share Posted October 10, 2017 (edited) When using WGET command in windows with Command Prompt Ekrn.exe is using tons of Hard Disk Usage if I open more than 1 Wget, it shouldn't use Hard disk usage at all, because I'm not really writing to the hard disk , anyway at least windows doesn't do that, but Eset think it does and scan it. I tried to disable all EIS protection but it still use Hard disk usage and also a lot of CPU Usage. with my friend computer it doesn't' happen and he doesn't have Antivirus installed https://imgur.com/ALY2DD3 Edited October 10, 2017 by x7007 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Marcos 5,259 Posted October 11, 2017 Administrators Share Posted October 11, 2017 When you download a file bigger than 1 MB or so via http, it's first saved to a temporary folder and scanned. After being scanned, it should be deleted automatically. If you don't want to scan files downloaded from a particular url, add the url to the list of addresses excluded from filtering.

tmuster2k 22 Posted October 11, 2017 Share Posted October 11, 2017 Marcos. Would excluding that URL from filtering cause a security hole or would other ESET protective measure be able to step in? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
