I'm talking about 17.0.15.0 that was recently released and I'm missing the Browser Protection module. Edited November 29, 2023 by MarcFL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Marcos 5,306 Posted November 29, 2023 Administrators Share Posted November 29, 2023 This is a known issue that occurs after automatic update of ESET NOD32 Antivirus to v17. You can resolve it by uninstalling EAV v17 and installing it using the live installer from ESET's website. If you use custom settings, export the configuration first and import it after reinstallation. P_ESSW-17576 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have other computers with the same issue. Will this be fixed, or do I need to reinstall on all of them? I can't imagine that Eset is going to ask thousands of customers to reinstall.

I have multiple devices and I also manage other home users with Eset. I have no desire to reinstall on all those devices - most with custom settings. Please advise if this will be fixed in a future update. Also advise if this "Browser Protection" module is still operational even though the configuration page is missing. Thank You for your assistance. Edited November 29, 2023 by MarcFL cofer123 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In ver. 17.0.15, the Browser Protection module also controls Banking & Payment Protection functionality. If you are running Eset with "Secure all browsers" option enabled, when you open Chrome, Firefox, or Edge you should see the green border with "X" symbol on the right hand side of the web page. If this is the case, you can assume Browser Protection is operational. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MarcFL 28 Posted November 30, 2023 Author Share Posted November 30, 2023 (edited) Thanks Marcos. But as outlined in this thread, the NOD32 automatic 17.0.15.0 update was defective and we do not see what you see (without uninstalling and reinstalling). Do you have any information on these outstanding issues. Thanks. 1. When will this be fixed in a future update? 2. Is the Browser Script Scanner module still operational even though the configuration page is missing?

It doesn't have Network protection to protect the machine from exploits exploiting vulnerabilities in network protocols nor IDS with RDP & SMB brute-force protection. It's also missing antispam, Parental Control, Anti-Theft, Safe banking and browsing and Broser privacy and security features. The lowest tier Home Security Essential subscription contains ESET Internet Security, not ESET NOD32 Antivirus. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Daamu32 0 Posted December 8, 2023 Share Posted December 8, 2023 Hello, I can confirm that I have not lost that setting. However, I have lost the option to use protected browsing on certain websites via redirects. Now I either have it always off, always on or I have to run the browser manually. Why? I can't understand the change. The convenience of having the list of required websites is gone. I hope it's something temporary. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
