Internet Protection Module 1173B.3 / 1173.5 / 1180

[howardagoldberg 14]

I am running ESET NOD32 Anti-Virus on multiple systems:

 

Win7 SP1 x64

Win 8.1 x32

Win 8.1 x64

 

A few weeks ago, I noticed that the Internet Protection Module was updated from 1173B.1 to 1180 (or 118x, I don't remember the exact number).

 

Shortly thereafter, the module was "downgraded" to 1173B.3.

 

Now, on one Win7 system, the module was upgraded to 1173.5 (no B), but all the other systems are still at 1173B.3.

 

Can someone please advise as to what is taking place, and what the issue is?

 

Thank you.

... an update:

 

Now, the computer that was on 1173B.3 just received module version 1173.6.

 

The other system is still on 1173.5.

 

Same network. Same desk! Can someone advise as to what is going on here?

It's pretty normal. There can be various versions of modules for different versions of ESET products plus some modules are released as staggered updates so it may take time until all users update to a particular module version.

BTW what does this B mean?

And as far as I know the point in the version number there is also unusually.

I think actually the Internet protection module is the only one with such a dot. So does this mean something special?

My internet module was upgraded to 1173.7 (20150428)

 

what improvements does this bring?

Okay, but what does the "B" in a module version number mean anyway?

I think these modules are more frequent in Beta testing of new releases, example: right now it would be the internet protection module (1203b), HIPS module (1186b), the new config module (1134b) and translation support module (1363b)

i suppose precedence of module download would be beta channel first, then your prefered update channel (usually regular) and then your not prefered channel (usually pre-release)
