Whenever i try to get something via yahoo messenger from a friend or download anythig from the internet or upload/give something to a friend it won't let me do so,it's virtualy blocking everything and completley detaches me from the internet except from loading pages and online games.Here's a pic of the blocking,if u want me i can even post a pic of the log.
it still won't let me do anything even if i disable it:|
It sounds like a misconfiguration. Or there's always the possibility you have a virus.
Run a scan with Malwarebytes and MSE to verify that you have a clean system.
Next you could try d/l ing the documentation on it and see if you can find the problem there:
Documentation - ESET
If this doesn't help, you may want to try a new AV and use either Windows Firewall or Comodo.
I wouldn't recommend ZoneAlarm for Win 7 as it seems to have some issues
It could also be that some malware on your machine is trying to use the messenger program to 'phone' home which ESET is blocking.
You can try tools like TCPView to monitor what processes are accessing the internet and to what ip address they're listening.
Nevertheless, run a full scan with your AV and MBAM to make sure your system's clean.
You can also try Hitman Pro or Immunet Protect if your interested in a cloud based scanner, just for the sake of a second opinion.
u mean that everything i recieve is unsafe?that's bs:|
ezio,what's that tpc thing and could u help me use it?
and must i use Avira?won't that interact with the current nod32 and show nothing?
Here's the link to TCPView, it's a free standing program, just 2X on it to run it.
TCPView for Windows
TCPView is a Windows program that will show you detailed listings of all TCP and UDP endpoints on your system, including the local and remote addresses and state of TCP connections. On Windows Server 2008, Vista, and XP, TCPView also reports the name of the process that owns the endpoint. TCPView provides a more informative and conveniently presented subset of the Netstat program that ships with Windows. The TCPView download includes Tcpvcon, a command-line version with the same functionality.
and is it like a normal antivirus or anti malware?or does it show me a log or such?
It isn't any kind of AV or anti malware, it will bring up a screen that shows all your active connections.
As EzioAuditore said, it will show you what is accessing the net and what the connections addys are. If there are a bunch of them going to a single place, that could be trouble and indicate a virus/malware.
Two AV's running together isn't usually recommended since they tend to clash. MSE (for the most part) plays well with other AV's, so you may want to d/l that and run it.
Malwarebytes will not interfere with your AV, it is also a stand alone program. Run that and your AV (not at the same time), do a full sys scan with both and see what they find.

I think you will have better luck getting this solved over here: Official ESET Support Forum - Wilders Security Forums
I used to use Nod32... it took me weeks to get its many, many, many settings just right for it to work without interfering with other things, it is definitely not a user-friendly AV because it does take a LOT of trial and error just to get it setup. Anyway, there should be some kind of tutorial on that forum somewhere that will help you get the settings right and that's going to be your best bet at fixing this.
When I used it (two years), I wasn't ever getting any viruses... it wasn't detecting or altering me to anything, and never found squat. So I decided to get rid of it when my license ran out and it turns out that I didn't really need such a powerful AV because I don't get viruses - I get maybe ONE a year and when I do, if MBAM can't knock it out (very rarely ever happens) I then back up my crap and wipe the system out and we're good to go again. I prefer this to paying through the nose for a program that's just going to be a pain in the butt 365 days of the year, as opposed to only having to have one crappy day of backing up and restoring the system when the "big one" hits lmfao.
