Hoca Posted March 25, 2009 Share Posted March 25, 2009 As people seem to be chattering on whether automatic updates are happening or not? I thought I'd give further info on my install yesterday day...Since the initial automatic update that happened on install of 4.0.314 and Eset4Box4EVER v4.20A which put me on 3958 (20090324), I find I am now on sig 3961 (20090325) so automatic updates are definitely happening here! :PWhy are people doubting auto-updates? is it due to the username/password problem peeps have suffered?

shought Posted March 25, 2009 Author Share Posted March 25, 2009 @Hoca, You have many excellent suggestions...You got that right, I don't know if you noticed(Hoca), but you nearly got the title of Poster of the Week last week ;) (Read the topic for more information on my decision :P)But do know I(and we all, I think) appreciate your efforts.

Hoca Posted March 25, 2009 Share Posted March 25, 2009 @boxTrouble is I advanced the test PCs I had with mara and ru fixes on and they held steady, I got the impression it was only upon them phoning home that they began to count-down after many days showing static trial days!It would be handy to show the sigs info in the pop-up, but I do not feel it is essential, but if it does not show the sigs version I believe it should indicate where this info can be found? :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hoca Posted March 25, 2009 Share Posted March 25, 2009 @box and @shoughtThank you for the compliment! :PI had not noticed I had nearly been poster of the week (message to self... must think of another cunning idea to achieve this goal! ;) LOL)edit...Where do I read more info on PotW?

matias067 Posted March 25, 2009 Share Posted March 25, 2009 How do I uninstall(remove) the fiXes?? like [mara-] or [boX] ??sorry for the stupid question. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hoca Posted March 25, 2009 Share Posted March 25, 2009 @matias067Not a stupid question :PWith mara's fix run the fix again and it will offer to remove it for you.With box's fix, run it again and choose YES to 'change the status', this will UNLOCK the registry again.Will that do for ya? ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mo Husen Posted March 25, 2009 Share Posted March 25, 2009 Further to my Post #701 [Yesterday, 05:17 PM]No Auto-update has so far taken place today, the puter has been booted x2 & 1 re-boot.Last successful up-date was yesterday @1805hrs Virus Sig 3958 - since then 3update Sigs have been released by Eset.Should it not have updated by now Should I try a manual update or wait to see if it happens later Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

regy13 Posted March 25, 2009 Share Posted March 25, 2009 you are lucky to even have updates on trial in any program. trial means evaluating, not using normally.it's natural for updates to be faster on retail versions than trial. but some hours difference between updates shouldn't be a problem to anyone. unless you are on wall street or an airport Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dex Posted March 25, 2009 Share Posted March 25, 2009 any ideas why smart security continues to deny updating with this fix? I often had to switch update servers to convince it, and often even that doesnt work.thanks for any adviceDex Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyway if you really are concerned about 'zero-hour threats' you should just buy the damn Full version. It's highly unlikely that any of us will ever come in contact with a zero-hour threat and that ESET's heuristics won't pick it up.(Unless someone is deliberately targeting your machine by for instance an email message... or hijacking your WLAN connection...)

Hoca Posted March 25, 2009 Share Posted March 25, 2009 @shought"Anyway if you really are concerned about 'zero-hour threats' you should just buy the damn Full version"Well put! I've been tempted to say that and I'm glad that someone has! what do folk want, they're getting a great product gratis!You only have to read a couple of pages of posts to see that it's all been said! The servers are still weighed down, and trial versions don't get updates as quickly as retail (that said, I've always found delays to minimal though!)The only problem I'm aware of that's preventing some peeps from getting updates is this asking for username/password business (something I've thankfully not had a taste of)People should stop whining! If they don't feel the fixes are good enough, get your hand in your pocket and buy the thing! :P LOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hoca Posted March 26, 2009 Share Posted March 26, 2009 @tf25It shows under Protection status on the main ESET window. But as ever it only appears after your first update and a restart. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hoca Posted March 26, 2009 Share Posted March 26, 2009 @boxGreat news, can't wait to see how it turns out! :PI was thinking... when you said your fix does not install any files on a users machine... could it prove useful if it did? :DThat is to say that your fix copies itself to the ESET (or Windows) folder and adds a link to itself in the Start Menu, so if the need arises to run the fix to either Unlock/Lock the trial again it is already on the machine ready to be used?I've not tried to un-install/re-install ESS with the registry locked by your fix, but I think it's safe to say things would go pair-shaped if I did? So having your fix on-tap so to to speak to Unlock the registry could prove to be very handy?Again maybe this could be an option when you run the fix rather than compulsory thing, but I can't see a downside to having the fix ready to use? It may prove useful to automatically add it to the Exceptions list though? :lmao:Just a thought anyhoo? :think: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
El_Burro Posted March 26, 2009 Share Posted March 26, 2009 excuse me anyone knows what is ESET.NOD32.4.0.314.READ.NFO-UNION ?heard some people talk about it but is a kind of new "patch"? Tryed to search it with google but no good links Anyway with latest marafix,everythings is going perfectThanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bizarre™ Posted March 26, 2009 Share Posted March 26, 2009 @El_Burro:The fix you mentioned uses a patched updater.dllI didn't bother using it since I don't have v4 on my main computer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
El_Burro Posted March 26, 2009 Share Posted March 26, 2009 thanks Bizarre™.So anyone knows if is it something new or maybe better (!) than the others awesome fix we have here? Or its another "copy" of the ones already posted here? Dont undertand how a patched update.dll can also fix the remaning days for example. But guess these is only because im not into these things <_< Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
