I invite those of you who have 64-bit windows to test your ESET Smart Security.
  1. download the Security Software Testing Suite 64(ssts64.7z) here http://www.matousec.com/downloads/
  2. unpack the 7zip file to a specific folder. Name the folder as "ssts64" and save the entire folder into C drive.
  3. edit "ssts64.conf" file(recommend using Notepad++ for editing) into the following - http://pastebin.com/pKfvaecL , assuming you are using default installation setting for your ESS or run "Configurator.exe" to generate the config.
  4. now copy the config file and paste into Level-01, Level-02, Level-03......Level-11 folders.
  5. hit "windows-key + r" type cmd to run command prompt. In the MS-DOS commands, keep typing "cd.." until u see C:\>
  6. then type "cd ssts64", U will see C:\ssts64>
  7. then "cd level-01"(now become C:\ssts64\level-01>)
  8. then start running the test one by one, just type the program name, example autorun3 and see the result.
It is a proactive and IDS test, so AV is irrelevant here. Please test it with your daily ESS settings. My ESS setting is:-

ESET Smart Security 8.
HIPS - all enable, Filter mode - smart mode.
Firewall - interactive mode, IDS and botnet protection enable.
Third party sandboxie and VM - not installed. I intend to run the test as "real-world" as possible.​

So far, I tested level-01, my ESS passed all tests, 10/10. You can see test results by matousec - http://www.matousec.com/projects/proactive-security-challenge-64/reports/PSC64 report - ESET Smart Security 7.0.302.26.pdf

Will continue to test other levels soon.
