Eset HIPS preventing BITS to modify starting params

I have set Eset to warn me when HIPS forbid an action or when a modification apply to boot application.

I get this message (it's a translation i'm using the french UI): 
"boot parameters modification

Application : C:\Windows\System32\services.exe

Target : HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\ControlSet001\Services\BITS\Start

The operation has not been allowed."

I seems BITS should be allow, isn't it? Is it an error from eset?

Malware can modify that registry key. Example of this here: https://www.trendmicro.com/vinfo/us/threat-encyclopedia/malware/trojan.lnk.powload.ah .

What a shame!
Eset is either buged or badly translated. The box on the screen says "operation not authorized" while the HIPS log says action : "authorized" !

Eset translation is awfull. I had to install the english version.
Even some French sentences that i couldn't understand (although i'm french myself) makes absolute sence in english.

I wouldn't advise anyone to install anyother translation than the english application

There is another bug

in French translation instead of saying "scans" they says "detections" while "une détection" is when you found something. "scan" or "analyse" are often used in French.

Since I don't speak French, I'd recommend reporting it through your local ESET distributor. Translation is done by a professional translation company but issues may occur if exact context is not known.

Thanks for your help.
I have an ultimate last question. I noticed in the english version, once a scan is completed in the info box

"No detections has been found"

Is it my poor english (it may be) or is it a wrong translation as wouldn't this meen that they "didn't find the finding"?

actually it is written "have" not "has" :S
ok it's not critical but ...

This means no viruses have been found - no detections have been found
