To the Computer Users Who Were Annoyed by Esset Nod32 Antivirus

"I would like to uninstall my Esset Nod32 Antivirus (4.0.474.0) but failed"
- To the computer users who were annoyed by Esset Nod32 Antivirus

As an agent of Tee Support, I am always interested in gaining firsthand experience of different software and then uninstalling them from my computer. And during the process of un-installation, something unexpected will happen and take time to settle down sometimes.

A typical example is the other day when my colleague and I tried to uninstall Esset Nod32 Antivirus (4.0.474.0) from our computers; I promised I had used the same method as my colleague. We all uninstalled Esset Nod32 Antivirus (4.0.474.0) with its attached uninstall function and then rebooted each other's computer. But the same operation steps applying to different computers make different. I still found it existing in my computer while it just totally went from my colleague's computer. What a joke!

I tried to use the way which an advanced computer user could think of, that is, deleting keys and values named Esset Nod32 Antivirus in the Registry Editor Window manually. Usually, this method works. Obviously, I was not that lucky this time, for Esset Nod32 Antivirus was highly integrated with the system service and associated with the system components.

Then it turned to be a professional case. With some professional tools, we recognized the leftovers of Esset Nod32 Antivirus that still affected the computer and worked out a solution in the following:

1) Boot the computer in safe mode
2) Manually delete the below things in the Registry Editor Window:
C:\WINDOWS\system32\drivers\eamon.sys
C:\WINDOWS\system32\drivers\ehdrv.sys
C:\WINDOWS\system32\drivers\epfw.sys
C:\WINDOWS\system32\drivers\epfwndis.sys
C:\WINDOWS\system32\drivers\epfwtdi.sys
3) Use Force Uninstall function of Quusoft uninstaller developed by one of our cooperative partners to remove files form the below directory:
C:\Program Files\ESET
C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\ESET
4) Boot the computer in common mode. Since the leftovers of ESET were too powerful, the network connection failed. And we had to perform these steps: my computer->my network place-> view network connection -> double-click to open local area connections status-> property-> select ESET and then click Uninstall-> restart your computer-> if network connection is still not available, reset the Internet protocol(IP)

The whole process was so complex and if I were a common computer user, I guess I should have described it with a word "crazy", right?

Anyhow, computer brings us great convenience and Esset Nod32 Antivirus is not bad and a popular anti-virus software. We should allow life sometimes has an episode. Enjoy using your computer!
