Paolo_R 0 Posted June 17, 2019 Share Posted June 17, 2019 I am trying to install uTorrent and NOD32 is blocking me. I've tried to ignore the block but NOD32 still blocks the installation. Please advise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Marcos 4,361 Posted June 17, 2019 Administrators Share Posted June 17, 2019 I assume the application is detection as potentially unwanted. The detection is correct then. If you think that benefits of using the application outweigh possible risks (e.g. installation of toolbars, displaying ads or whatever PUAs can do), you can exclude it from detection by the detection name as follows: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paolo_R 0 Posted June 17, 2019 Author Share Posted June 17, 2019 Marcos Thanks for the comments. I've used uTorrent on a couple of other PCs without any problems. Your suggestions for excluding the signature worked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your suggestions for excluding the signature worked. uTorrent do put some ads software with their installation as far as I remember I prefer Deluge or Qbitorrent , Google for them , ESET will not detect them as PUA because they don't include ads or toolbars in their installers.
