Does ESET NOD32 ANTIVIRUS 4 detect malicious browser plugins?

I am wondering if ESET NOD32 ANTIVIRUS 4 detects malicious browser plugins!

ESET NOD32 Antivirus v4 is an ancient product which cannot protect you sufficiently against current threats. Please uninstall it and install the latest ESET NOD32 Antivirus version 13.2 or v9 if you are using Windows XP and cannot upgrade to a fully supported operating system.

4 is the latest version of Linux. The reason Marcos mentioned 13 is this post was put in the nod32 windows forum. There is a forum for Linux for desktop https://forum.eset.com/forum/27-eset-nod32-antivirus-for-linux-desktop/

I cannot answer your question as don't use Linux however the desktop version is also legacy so I don't think there's any plans to update it although I could be wrong as I don't work for Eset

I see, the latest version of ESET NOD32 Antivirus for Linux desktop is 4.0.95. While it's a legacy product, it can detect malware detected by the on-demand scanner in newer products for Windows. That said, if a detection was created for a malicious browser plug-in, it would be detected by EAV for Linux too.

Thanks, ESET is the best linux antivirus out there! Sad I cant get version 13.2/9

Version 9 is an old one and is the latest one with support for Windows XP. On the other hand, v13.2 is the latest version for Windows. For Linux the latest is the legacy version 4.0.95.
