Updating ESET Smart Security and ESET NOD32 Virus Definition with Smart Way
ESET is my favourite AV since this product receive the best AV 2006, 2007 and still top ten the best AV in 2008.
I'm using ESET product not just because that award, but also because this ESET doesn't make my system slower like Norton does.
ESET has 2 main product which is :
1. NOD32 Antivirus (the latest is ver 3)
This is an anti virus product
2. Eset Smart Security (the latest is ver 3)
This is an anti virus plus anti spyware, anti malware, and personal firewall in one bundling product.
Now back to topic, the problem with ESET is updating the latest virus definition with the slow connection (like mine). If you have unlimited, stable and fast internet connection you can leave this article now.
