daveiw 4 Posted August 28, 2015 Posted August 28, 2015 (edited) Hello, I recently installed the latest beta of Eset Smart Security (9.0.141.0) and all seemed well until I restarted my PC. I use Mailbird 2 as my email client and now every time I start Windows, or exit Mailbird and re-start it I get this - see attached screenshots. If I disable Eset protection, exit Mailbird, then restart it, the issue is gone, so it's ESS related. Please advise. Edited August 28, 2015 by daveiw
daveiw 4 Posted August 28, 2015 Author Posted August 28, 2015 I've pressed ''yes'' and the popup disappears, only to popup the next time I start Windows, or restart Mailbird. I've also installed the certificate to no avail, as the problem persists. This did not happen on the previous beta version of ESS.
Administrators Marcos 5,468 Posted August 28, 2015 Administrators Posted August 28, 2015 V9 has SSL scanning enabled by default but the error doesn't seem to be related to ESET's root certificate as such but rather to the fact that a communication with another domain than www.getmailbird.com but utilizing the certificate issued for www.getmailbird.com was attempted. You can try temporarily disabling SSL scanning, however, I assume that it wont' help as the warning is coming from Windows and not from ESET.
daveiw 4 Posted August 29, 2015 Author Posted August 29, 2015 Hmm, okay thank you Marcos, for now I've switched to the EM mail client. This is working fine. By the way, am I reading it correctly or does your response suggest a possible attack on Mailbirds servers?
