ASIO Posted November 2, 2012 Share Posted November 2, 2012 Both ESET Smart Security 5 and ESET NOD32 Antivirus 5 scan network traffic for viruses by using the ESET kernel service (ekrn.exe) as an internal proxy server.By default, your ESET security product automatically detects programs that are used as web browsers and email clients and adds them to the list of programs that the internal proxy scans. This can cause loss of internet connectivity or other undesired results with applications that use network features but are not web browsers/email clients.This can be fixed by adjusting the settings of the internal proxy, or protocol filter, to ensure that it is only being used for web browser and email applications:Open the main program window by double-clicking the ESET icon next to the system clock or by clicking Start All Programs ESET ESET Smart Security or ESET NOD32 Antivirus.Press the F5 key on your keyboard to display the Advanced setup window. In the Advanced Setup tree to the left, expand Web and email, click Protocol filtering and select Applications marked as web browsers and email clients.In the Advanced Setup tree, click expand Protocol filtering Web and email clients and click Excluded applications. Click and check the browsers that you want to skip protocol filtering and restrictions created by eset products. Click OK to save your changes.AFTER DOING THIS CHECK YOUR ANTIVIRUS IS WORKING OR NOT BY DOWNLOADING THIS VIRUS TEST FILE BY EICAR Download area using the standard protocol http eicar.comeicar.com.txteicar_com.zipeicarcom2.zipDownload area using the secure, SSL enabled protocol https eicar.comeicar.com.txteicar_com.zipeicarcom2.zip Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
