Nice test and good result from ESET as always!

Nice. Might give this beta version a whirl.

How stable was it? Did you encounter any errors, freezes, hangs, etc?

What is the point in testing ESET if everyone know it does good in every test?

Great Review!!! Once more Eset rule. I believe that Eset antivirus + private firewall will do an amazing job, both programs will be very light on resources....
The only thing i don't like in this new version is the interface....looks nice but outdated, definitely needs refreshing

I am beta testing it on Windows 8.1.The GUI hasn't really changed.It might have been nice if they did something like Emsisoft did with the GUI in EAM 9.As long as it provides the same or better protection that it has in the past I don't really care what it looks like

 

[MikeV]

Is there someone who have connections to Eset team, to suggest a new GUI?
There is already a new GUI suggested here by Darren Barlow which is amazing :

No

No

Dissapointing fact! I believe it will get better in future versions of eset, v8 will be weak in that feature as its very new.
