HELP concerning ESET is needed !


mona

Recommended Posts

I've never used ESET before. So decided to try it.

Yesterday installed ESET Smart Security v.8  (not the current v.10), following opinions of some folks in this thread.

 

My knowledge about ESS's  functioning is yet not sufficient , so could someone tell me how to WHITELIST nsanedown.com for good ?  Didn't found whitelisting functionality at all there.

By now - to access nsanedown site I had to temporarily disable "web access protection" in Advanced settings !  I hope there must be some better solution though.

 

The second question :

ESS doesn't like nsanedown to the extent that it quarantined all internet links to this site on my comp.  To make it even worse when I tried to restore them - they were immediately placed in quarantine again.  Is it any way to curb a bit ESS's efforts to "protect" me ?   :angry:  :s  :rant:  Till now I failed to find  them !!!

 

PLEASE HELP !

Only the 3 I listed above is needed for nsane the rest you posted @12stones  Is for TNOD  she didn't ask how too  exclude that yet lol.  Since I installed NOD32 v8 on both my computers  Ive only needed to use TNOD once  I just disabled my AV got a key  and re enabled  it  that was back  at the end of July and still never needed new keys so no need excluding  it. I only exclude the program it's self  so  NOD32 would not delete it,

Adding a website exclusion should help like steventhirtysix said.

Thank you  @steven36

My bad !!! . I managed to go as far as "Web access protection". But failed to notice I can go even deeper in the menu (clicking "+").

That's why there was no place to place my exceptions. :P

@WALLONN7 Thanks, but your instruction concerns email protection. It's a bit different stuff.  Nice to see you though. :)

Wait a moment, I inserted my exceptions as seen on the above screenshot, but nsanedown is still blocked:o  :wtf:

What on earth did I wrong this time ?

I been using  them since 2014 with no problems here or anywhere else I fond may be a false positive , If you're paranoid  about sites you exclude you can also use Malwarebytes Anti-Malware v2 in real time as well i did that for awhile but now i just use just NOD32 v8 lol   .Malwarebytes Anti-Malware v3 I dont know about running that one with another antivirus

I was using eset nodthirtytwo eight then got a popup to upgrade my eset and clicked on upgrade and it worked this time last five times I tried to upgrade nothing happened.  I looked in my eset nodthirtytwo nine and nsane down is not excluded and I can access it thats funny.  You need to exclude it properly mona *nsanedown.com like that Im pretty sure.

Different protection shields = different ways to add exclusions?! Really?! :duh:

Yes this happens once every 30 days you just tell it no   there's 2 Ips  you can  block in you're firewall that will stop this, also it will  remove trial key watermarks, popups,  and make keys last a little longer.

Different page in Settings.  I got to those email settings before, but wasn't enough attentive and missed the sites exclusions page.

I know Im using the trial now when thats over Ill fix eset again.  I think eset made it so you dont have to exclude eset in version nine of its software.  For your information mona the current stable version of eset is version nine ten is beta.

@steven36   I'm not paranoid. I'm on default settings. and nsanedown is the first exception I did.

 

I don't know ESET at all. Never used it before. 

For last 7 years I had been using Emsisoft Antimalware without any problems. But run out of licences lately and decided it was time to change.

Got the nice one year ESS license from @kasper  and so I'm.   :rolleyes:

Not *www.nsanedown.com* try *nsanedown.com* that should work.  They have a proper syntax and I think its *nsanedown.com* that should be right correct me if Im wrong.

I copied & pasted these entries from your post.

Please check  my first screenshot posted in this thread.  It shows how inserted exceptions are looking on my end.....

 

And BTW and in the meantime :

What about my second question posted in OP ?

Eset doesnt quarantine links it just blocks them and I would add any links that get blocked to website url exclusion list.  I recommend you update to eset ess nine Im using esrt nodthirtytwo nine and I dont have to add url exclusions I checked to see if sites were excluded and there not and I can access nsane down (Im sorry its not the version that corrects that its the definition files.

Double check to make sure they stayed in there you must push ok and allow uac  for them too set  also try restarting you're browser there's like a 100  people who use nod32 here with no problems by excluding the site lol.
