web access protection notification disable

Hi, I am using Eset Internet Security. I have disabled web access protection intentionally and disabled the respected application status as well.

 

Yet, in the dashboard, I still see 1 red message under Setup tab.

Since Web access protection is as crucial as real-time protection, the protection status changes to red if it doesn't work. With Web access protection not being active you are exposed to Internet-borne threats and ESET won't protect you fully. Anyways, if you take the risk you can disable the appropriate application status in the advanced setup on your own responsibility.

I understand the risk and responsibility. I have already disabled the appropriate application status, but it still displays one red message.

See the attached image. I don't want to see this red message as I have disabled it on my own accord and I fully understand the implications.

If this is predicted behavior then I will have to switch to NOD32 and will have to look for alternate firewall solution.

Firewall is the only network component I use in Eset Internet Security.

I was able to resolve the issue using below steps:

1. Enable protocol filtering back to enable web access settings.

2. Disable web access.

3. Disable protocol filtering.
