[safe1st]

Thank you
Have a good day!

Big test, thanks for sharing!
I use ESET Smart Security + Zemana and I think a very good combination!
ESET + Zemana = Lightweight and effective
ESET gave life to my system, after suffering much from Avast and AVG
And Zemana a very good addition.

I agreed, I testing this on purpose..
Actually with Hitman Pro Alert. But, its ok only this 2

Since this my config too

 

[Jrs30]

@safe1st I have not tested the Hitman Pro yet.
I see that many speak of it! I'll still give it a try.
I use the Emsisoft Emergency Kit, the Zemana pass something -> Emsisoft Emergency Kit detects lol

 

[Rishi]

You guys have almost same security config as mine ...

Thanks again for this great test.
And nice to see that even Norton helped a bit at 1:30

Nice test and very good job! I like the way you are doing your tests now

P.S: You have at least 1 "malware" that isn't a malware in that folder (HFS by rejetto). ESET classifies it as "potentially unsafe"

I will recommend this combo to anyone who is looking for a decent security setup with low performance impact.

I haven't seen Eset HIPS or Heuristic works for unknown malwares. If the pc is not infect is only for Zemana real-time protection?

I haven't seen Eset HIPS or Heuristic works for unknown malwares.

HIPS not configured on default settings.

HIPS not configured on default settings.

Actually its enabled, but I dont change anything on the HIPS setting.

what do you mean?

I enjoy watching these tests @safe1st, keep it up !!!

 

[Stas]

Actually its enabled, but I dont change anything on the HIPS setting.

So its set on Automatic mode not a good HIPS setting, if you don't manually set HIPS you should at least use Smart mode or Learning mode to create rules automatically for maximum duration of 14 days and then change to Interactive mode or Policy-based mode.

I know but its based on my real-system and gaming pc.
I dont randomly install softwares- try a software on VM. Also the good thing is no leftover files after uninstall a software..

So I think I dont need HIPS especially on my gaming pc. Only games, editing.. thats it

 

[Stas]

I was just replying @Fede90 why he don't see Eset HIPS works for unknown malwares.

 

[Fede90]

Meanwhile i have seen video another time. I mean when you start to execute random malwares from the folder, i cannot see ESET warning about suspicious items running on the system. Only Zemana advise. That's it
Probably i don't know all ESET setting and how they work.

@Stas: so, only in learing mode ESET can try to stop unknown malwares?
