Super_Spartan 56 Posted September 21, 2015 Posted September 21, 2015 Hi there, I just got this error on a fresh installation of Windows 7 x64. When I hit submit feedback, it takes me to the Beta Site feedback form, after filling it out and hitting submit, nothing happens, the page just continues to load forever... the error is: "Hi there, just installed a fresh new Windows 7 x64 then installed NOD32 v9.0.117.0 (x64), after it updated to v9.0.141.0 and I restarted, I got a popup message on the right saying "Protocol filtering problem". I attached the image of the error message. I have installed NOD32 v9.0.117.0 (x64) also on Windows 10 before and it was running superb with no errors at all. This is the first time I see this error."
ESET Moderators TomasP 335 Posted September 22, 2015 ESET Moderators Posted September 22, 2015 Hi, is this error persistent after each restart of the PC?If so, I would recommend to uninstall ESS and install it again, as some of the necessary files may be corrupted.

Didn't happen on Windows 10 though. only on Windows 7 FTW

Also please note that the link in question is not infected, it is perfectly safe and it is only used to test if an antivirus software is working properly.

I formatted and installed Windows 10, now this error doesn't appear anymore. It's a problem with Windows 7. I don't have access to that Windows 7 machine anymore as I formatted but on Windows 10 NOD32 doesn't allow me to visit the above link so HTTP scanning is working, but again, on Windows 10. Furthermore, as I stated in the OP, the send feedback link is broken, once you hit submit nothing happens.

Been running Windows 10 for 3 days now along with the latest NOD32 v9 Beta and the issue never came. This time when I restarted I saw the exact same popup about protocol filtering problem Although even though the error showed up even on Windows 10, I wasn't able to visit the above link as NOD32 blocked it. This time I was able to send the feedback, seems like they fixed the issue with the site. #TICKET 154956 Edited September 24, 2015 by Matrix Leader
