Ver. 8.0.319.0 Eset GUI Bug

[itman 1,659]

This appears to have started recently.

 

When accessing the "Filtered Web Sites" log file via Smart Security GUI view log files option, Eset's GUI freezes on my desktop and cannot be shutdown. Only way to get rid of the Eset GUI window is to reboot the PC.

 

What is really strange is access to all the other log files is fine w/o GUI issues. Should I just delete that log file manually? What is its file name and directory location?

 

-EDIT-

 

The Filtered Web Site log was updated yesterday with an IP blacklist detection. Might be a problem with the way that module writes to the log file?

Seems like you are not the only one. And it seems this issue affects both ESS and EAV, hmmm.

Last entry in the url log file looks "hosed" to me:
