Title: Problem with NOD32 and Windows
Post by: Noreen on Jul 14, 2009, 10:59:53
As you probably know I haven't been doing much on my computer (Vista) but this morning I got this message. Any ideas?

I can only suggest a call/email to Eset, Noreen, sorry.

I think that I'll live with it for now, Rik, can't really cope with it at the moment. I know that NOD32 is working anyway.

Can you turn off the alert in Vista, as you can in XP?

A reboot may help, Noreen.  I get weird messages on my Vista machine about F-Secure sometimes.

I've already turned the machine off and on again with no effect. I think that it must be the latest automatic defs download as I didn't have it yesterday. Perhaps the next download may fix it.

More than likely, Noreen.  :)

I would not worry its Windows causing the issues Noreen here is a quote from Kaspersky forum

"Please do not pay attention to that warning, this is due to Microsoft`s change in Vista Security Center format. As we can see, many Av products are showing this alert now. This is clearly a misconfiguration on Microsoft`s side. We are working with Microsoft so they remove that warning in nearest future"

Thanks, Gary, I was wondering if it was specific to Vista as I've not seen it happening on XP.  :thumb:

Typical MS, lets just change the format, then oops look what happened.  ::)

Thanks Gary, I've stopped the Windows Security Centre monitoring it for now.

Just to add installing vista SP2 stops this behaviour.

SP2 won't install, there's a previous thread about this. I'm not the only one with the SP2 problem.

I remember Noreen thats most odd I think OEMs mucked things up, also running your AV never helps I shut mine down so it could not boot and disturb the install after the first phase, thats why I hate computers now, they are just tools and best forgotten about as much as possible, I used to reinstall worry when it didnt do things right, now as long as it boots and i can watch a few things on the BBC iplayer  browse and have email I don't really mind the quirks, you did the best thing shutting down the warning you know NOD works and thats  that  :thumb:

I dare say that these problems are easily solved but I don't feel able to cope with them at the moment as I have a broken arm.

Re this problem. I'm running v3 at the moment, I seem to remember that after some recent problems it was recommended that people should revert to v3 from v4 but I don't know whether that still applies. http://kb.eset.com/esetkb/index?page=content&id=SOLN2292

As NOD32 is working anyway I'm going to live with it for now. ;D
