A significant improvement was noticed with the false alarms, as encouragingly ESET did not erroneously alert us about any legitimate sites at all. It did find several malicious URLs, which was quite stable from our prior experience with this software. We found URL filtering to be nothing outstanding, but still average. On our test, ESET found all of the malware threats we placed, and there were no false alarms. The rate of detection is quite high also. Whatever scan method we chose, our system’s scanning time were quick, especially following the initial analysis, with on a repeat run ESET Smart Scan examines only the modified or new files.

We also appreciate the options to analyze a file’s reputation for additional information, for only a scan of the file without any cleaning to give an instant opinion, or for a manual quarantine of the file even when it does not come up as malware, which we utilize for safe archiving a suspected file. Just right-clicking on a file in the Windows Explorer, to initiate ESET NOD32 to perform the usual scan. The custom configuration theme runs in multiple areas of the program. Another great feature is to create custom scan categories, which will scrub a specific location for malware, implementing the scanning rules previously specified. General scans get fired up a simple click, or the same sequence for initiating a quick or removable drive scan. By way of example, by clicking on Computer Scan it then launches the Scan page, and subsequently needs user input on the next step, but hitting on Scan Your Computer will launch the scan avoiding the delay.Īfter the learning curve has been surpassed though, ESET mostly works quite identically as other antivirus programs. For mastering even the essentials there is definitely a learning curve. When there is a concern for a potential conflict or a malware suspected on your system, having this high level of power that ESET offers to apply onto your system for tweaks could be the key to getting rid of the issue.ĮSET NOD32's interface is a little busy on the first glance, as it is overflowing with a gaggle of status information, buttons, sidebars, links and more. We totally agree that not every user is going to benefit from this type of complete control, but, it is really nice to have this high level of options. Other antivirus solutions have the option to control email scanning by selecting it to on or off, ESET allows lots more choices around this task, including which email clients for integration, the emails for scanning including received or sent, a choice of protocols for monitoring, the action to prompt when a threat gets detected, for instance to ignore, to delete, or to move to a previously designated folder. Power users will like the opportunity to tweak a large number of options to finely optimize the software’s settings.

This software ran lightweight, adding just a few additional processes to our test system, occupying a total of 100MB of RAM with the system idle. We next looked at ESET NOD32 installed, and discovered the expected files which were neatly organized, digitally signed, and used 650MB of our hard drive capacity (average for this type of software).

Our installation ran quite smoothly, with a download and install of the main ESET NOD32 package, which then performs an automatic update, and then goes into an initial scan.
