itman 1,627 Posted August 8, 2016 Share Posted August 8, 2016 This is a weird one and was driving me "buggy" for a while. If the Eset GUI is open and I try to start a process for which I have previously defined a HIPS rule to allow, Eset will throw an alert on the process startup. However without Eset GUI open, the startup rule works fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ken1943 22 Posted August 8, 2016 Share Posted August 8, 2016 Do you like surprises ? Maybe it knows when you are messing with it. I don't see it as a bug. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Marcos 4,909 Posted August 8, 2016 Administrators Share Posted August 8, 2016 I was unable to reproduce this with one allowing rule for an application created. The application was started without any prompt regardless of whether I had gui open or not. Maybe the fact that you have multiple HIPS rules created matters? Perhaps you could export your existing config, delete all rules but one allowing one and see if you can still reproduce it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
itman 1,627 Posted August 8, 2016 Author Share Posted August 8, 2016 Dang! You're right. I can't dup it either now although I did allow it once when it occurred. Will post back when I can duplicate. BTW - I greatly reduced the number of my custom HIPS rules since the HIPS was driving me crazy in ver. 9. Only have a few critical ones now. Will probably rely on Emsisoft's behavior blocker to catch anything Eset's HIPS does not catch in Smart mode. A lot less burdensome that way.
