[QUOTE="ForgottenSeer 72227, post: 847682"] Glad to see that Eset it upping their game.(y) I do agree that as powerful the HIPS component is (can be when tweaked), I do think that their home products should have something more automated and leave the HIPS for their enterprise offerings. I know some geeks my not like that, but it's not just geeks buying the home versions and I think that needs to be accounted for IMHO. Agreed. I've never really been a fan of HTTPS scanning. It seems to cause more issues that it's worth IMHO. HTTPS was always designed to be a secure connection between you and the server with no one in between (both good and bad). It just bugs me that security companies know this, but do it anyways. How many times do you see someone have issues with browsers/websites and the first solution from any company doing HTTPs scanning is to disable it. That to me means they know this causes problems, so why do it? I guess a good discussion to have would be to decide if HTTPS scanning is even necessary? I mean there's other ways to block web pages (IP blacklisting), but even if a file is downloaded, isn't that what the file scanner, BB, etc... is for anyways? Before we say that it's a requirement, lets not forget who told us it was a good idea/necessary in the first place. Ill give you a hint.........AV companies.:p [/QUOTE]
