Very Strange Eset Behavior

[itman 1,659]

Yesterday I was doing some system testing that caused hundreds of Eset desktop notifications. In my haste to stop those, I inadvertently and mistakenly turned off desktop notifications. No problem. Went into Eset GUI and re-enabled it.

Now here is where it gets very strange. Afterwards all my Eset HIPS ask rules were suddenly auto allowing the activity. Additionally, I was no longer receiving any Eset confirmation for GUI setting changes.

A system reboot returned everything back to normal. However, this behavior was a bit disturbing.
