I suggest you that while on BD 2013, you ensure to have things to do while doing a full system scan, like making lunch/dinner.

When I ran ESET, I actually had Parental and HIPS disabled. But that was just me :) It is something I do not recommend users to do unless they know what they are doing.
yea ive installed version 6 rc using it its lighter than v5 eset is doing great improvements!only thing they lack is a sandbox now compared to comodo and avast

Has your computer been slow? (just a question)

Nothing changed then.
Compared to Version 5 is pretty much about the same ram.

things i noticed between ESET 5 and ESET 6 are as follows
1) Redesigned GUI
2) Rearranged Advanced settings
3) Antitheft (not used yet)
4) IMPROVED FEATURES that were already present in v5
5) Added Idle state scanning (Disabled by default)
6) And i personally think the web protection is better than before
7) Firewall still a head ache to configure for some programs ( Just Bombard with a lot of alerts when using manually)

I hate it HIPS still have the same default rule and configuration settings?

That's what I wonder when I see 83 processes (including Chrome, and the others are in the background).

Yeah, that is what I got from the 2011 version. Have not tried the latest yet, but if it's going to have the same problem and slow the machine down then there (to me) would be no point in testing it.

some users reported BD slowing down the internet, others haven't. I didn't notice any slow down. But then again I was on BD 2013 AV only

Yeah that is what happened but with the version that I was using it froze the machine that bad that I was not able to get into normal mode, had to go through safe mode and use it's uninstaller.
