Sammo 8 Posted June 24, 2019 Posted June 24, 2019 I'm getting really ticked off with Eset not properly protecting some of my browsers. ðŸ˜

But even when a browser isn't supported eset should still work as far as I know, just things like banking protection may not. Don't quote me on that though

It is therefore not restricted by browser used. Proof of this can be had by opening the Web and Email section in Advanced setup option of the Eset GUI. Then open the List of SSL/TLS filtered applications section. You will observed a number of apps listed that are not browser related. What specific problems are you having with Anti-phishing protection?

I fixed the problem by changing the filtering method from Auto to Scan. Works great now.
itman 1,806 Posted June 25, 2019 Posted June 25, 2019 (edited) Hum ........ Not sure "You're out of the woods" on this browser and also Waterfox. To begin, other things need to be in place for Eset's SSL/TLS browser protcol scanning to work properly. The browser must either use the Windows root CA store where Eset's root certificate is installed by default at installation time, or Eset's root certificate must be added to the browser's root CA store. The later is done by Eset automatically for browser's it officially supports; Chrome, Firefox. IE11, Edge, and possibly Opera use the Win root CA store. The fact that you were able to pass the AMTSO phishing test by force enabling Eset SSL/TLS scanning for both, does not imply that it is functioning properly on both Brave and WaterFox.

It appears that my browsers are using the Eset root certificate from the Windows root CA store.
