[QUOTE="zkSnark, post: 1110644, member: 77378"] After reading all the praise for ESET, I too downloaded a trial version of ESET Smart Security and uninstalled Kaspersky. Ran it on default settings and changed only 1 setting in Protection, as per [USER=91290]@CyberDevil[/USER] 's advice given here. [URL unfurl="true"]https://malwaretips.com/threads/trying-out-eset-smart-security-premium-trial-version.133979/post-1110327[/URL] However, one issue I am facing is that ESET is deleting an application EXE file (SFVIP media Player). 1) Downloaded the file from GitHub. This EXE file is the latest version (v1.2.7.90) and the scan results were clean on Virus Total and Any.run. But ESET deleted the EXE file from my computer as a suspicious file.
