1274113	2012-05-07 21:47:00	Thats nasty, I would be making enquiries with the "someone he knows" also and find out if he/she is a victim or knew about it.	Iantech (16386)
1274114	2012-05-07 22:08:00	EDIT: we run Nod32 on local pcs, bit pissed the email server antivirus let it in TBH Is it set to scan correctly and not just as default setting ? Also are the definitions actually up to date.	wainuitech (129)
1274115	2012-05-07 22:40:00	Is it set to scan correctly and not just as default setting ? Also are the definitions actually up to date. Nod is set to do a 1/week full scan and thats all. A bit of advice here Wainui would be much appreciated Definitions update almost daily on automatic Nod let him run the exe but then all hell broke loose afterwards	Gobe1 (6290)
1274116	2012-05-07 22:52:00	no Probs, I'll post some instructions on how I set them up. Got to do a job at the moment 9.45, but I'll try to get them done ( with pictures) when I get back.	wainuitech (129)
1274117	2012-05-07 23:32:00	Well if that article is correct and the attacks are so individual and not wide spread then I can understand NOD32 missing it.	CYaBro (73)
1274118	2012-05-08 02:24:00	re post #4 This is how I always set Nod up. Please note, the pictures are using Smart Security, but the Antivirus section is the same. This is also version 5 Open Nod32 main window - On the left Setup - Computer ( 1st pic) Then Configure- Setup -- Under Objects / Options tick everything, Under cleaning set to strict 3774 3775 For scanning since you have already set it to do a weekly scan -- Open the scan settings, Tools - Scheduler Select your scan you have made - Edit - click through the existing settings, you will finally get to the scan options, make sure its set to In depth then to the right, Setup Again under Under Objects / Options tick everything, cleaning - Strict. 3776 Done. There area few more if you want to go overboard, but I find it not necessary.	wainuitech (129)
1274119	2012-05-08 05:40:00	Thanks for that Wainui, i will check out this tomorrow and post back	Gobe1 (6290)

No AV is perfect & its a bit unrealistic to expect every variation of malware be detected. :) Have you updated to the latest NOD32 Exch AV ?? (Im assuming you are running exchange) .There was an older version of Nod Exch AV recently obseleted . Is the Exch Server AV updating ?? Perhaps setup the Exch/AV or block all .exe attatchments ( & .bat etc) in emails :thumbs:	1101 (13337)
