[QUOTE="SeriousHoax, post: 893686, member: 78686"] Btw, I'm pretty sure ESET don't delete leftover registry entries of malwares if the system is already infected. AVs like Kaspersky, Bitdefender, Norton and even Windows Defender are pretty good at malware removal and their engine also takes time to remove threats. To me it looks like ESET only deletes the malware and any running processes associated with it. It doesn't look for potential registry entries, startup entries, etc made by malwares hence the removal process of ESET is extremely quick. It removes everything in a flash. Of course stopping malwares in the first place should be the main job of AVs and no doubt ESET is very good at that but I would not trust ESET to remove malwares from an infected system. One must use other tools for that. I'm not sure how effective this new registry scanner is and what does it actually look for there. [USER=79035]blackice[/USER] is right. Performance exclusion should skip it from scanning by real time protection and contextual scans. If it does the job for you then do it and don't disable real time protection. [/QUOTE]
