What happened to all the Eset Nod32 threads?

I'm trying to search for info on Eset's Nod32, and I can't find any?

 

Search appears to be a bit knackered..

 

Try later, they got rid of search for the time being to try and speed up the site.

 

i use nod32 version 3 for my desktop...its much nicer than kaspersky i think. Also does any know why nod32 works fine for my desktop but freezes up on inspiron 1420 about 2 minutes after log in?

 

hm. never heard of "krapsresky". i uses kaspersky. beats Noodle 32 anytime.

 

I'm sure it was an innocent spelling mistake. No need to rub it in. Be nice.

 

And I haven't heard of anything called "Noodle 32" either . Fanboy comments like those have no value. Take a look at some of the comprehensive tests done by professionals and decide which is better.

Both Kaspersky and NOD 32 are top class Virus guards, No need to bash either one of them. However NOD32 is light on resources, which is why I use it. Reason could be :

NOD32 in Wikipedia

 

I have installed both NOD and KIS and both hover around the 12mb mark. Same goes with AVG.

There is a new report from 2007, check out the site. Seems like NOD slipped a "bit" (pun intended )

Like I've mentioned elsewhere the new v3 of NOD32 uses more resources than 2.7. But that's only a small issue with there being quite a few others being shown up by users.

Avoid NOD32 until Eset sort all this out.

 

hmnnn does this have to do with anything?

 

What type of issues?

 

What issues does v3 have? Working really well for me so far... in my processes it's showing as taking up 2.2mb

 

I read about some concerns on the Wilders forum, bu are they issues?

Here's the V3 forum

I have never had any resources issue with V3 and then I upgraded to the smart security suite and still no issues, with the security suite, Ive seen it use as low as 900k to the high of 8mb, still a far cry from norton, there has got to be some other issues adding to the problem.

 

A thread I started a while ago had a few replies with people saying they'd seen a higher load on their resources. http://forum.notebookreview.com/showthread.php?t=186217

It doesn't seem to be happening for everyone, my install of v3 works great and is easy on resources too (build 3.0.560.0). There are more recent builds out now but I'm not changing mine just in case it makes things worse!

 

Well for the time I used V3 I saw much higher ram use compared to 2.7. Nearly double. Main issue was scanning which causes CPU spiking and ram upwards of 100Mb. Furthermore I saw continued increasing ram usage even when scanning had stopped. Now that may well have changed with newer builds.

However there were other elements I didn't personally like such as the new GUI, set-up and options.

All that weighed against it. I greatly prefer all aspects of 2.7 over 3. I wonder if Eset's move into suites has more to do with the changes than any real improvement of the core app.

There's no doubt that for others it's working fine but I feel they could/should have done more work on it prior to commercial launch.

 

NOD32 V3.0.563.0

egui.exe = 2,032k
ekrn.exe = 30,096k

With 2G of ram and a peak commit charge of 677,924k I'm not concerned ...

---

Doing a scan now, CPU spiked to 50% for a brief second but soon settled into single digits. egui.exe and ekrn.exe stayed about the same...

I'm still not concerned...

Edit: In the meantime Firefox is running at 140,764k the biggest hog by far.

 

That's because NOD32 was rewritten in C instead of ASM for easier transitions to other OS'es

 

I have installed the ESET security suite, for some reason some sites don't open anymore. Anyway to fix this?

sites are legit, i get an error that says connection cannot be established.

 

When you say Security Suite, do you mean NOD with the integrated firewall? I just have the AV. Isn't there a help section?
