NOD32
Antivirus Software 
Keep your important information safe & stay
productive with peace of mind. NOD32
offers fast, comprehensive protection
against a wide range of malware threats
– without the burden of a bloated
internet security suite. So easy to use:
simply set it up and forget it .
Comprehensive Protection
Running separate applications for
viruses, hackers, adware, and spyware
can slow your PC, be difficult to
manage, and provide questionable
protection. Beware of large, bloated
internet security suites that consume
hundreds of megabytes on your PC. These
typically exist because vendors have
acquired products and 'bundled' them
together. In contrast, ESET NOD32 was
designed from the core as a single,
highly-optimized engine that works as a
unified Anti-Threat system to protect
against a broad spectrum of malware.
Viruses, worms, spyware, and other
malicious attacks, which are constantly
evolving. ESET NOD32 utilizes
patent-pending ThreatSense®
Technology to detect tomorrow's
threats in real-time, by analyzing code
execution for malicious intent - keeping
you ahead of the malware-writers.
Minimal Performance Impact
NOD32 conserves resources in memory and
on disk, leaving more for your critical
applications. The installer is just 11
MB and the application consumes an
average 23 MB in memory (this fluctuates
with changes to the detection
technology). ThreatSense updates, which
include heuristics logic and signatures,
are usually between 20 kB and 50 kB.
Switch to NOD32 and be more productive.
Fastest Scanning
Great protection doesn't have to slow
down your computer. Written largely in
assembly language, NOD32 continually
wins awards for the fastest performance
of any antivirus application, on average
3 to 34 times faster than the
competition (source: Virus Bulletin).
Switch to NOD32 and upgrade your
computer's performance.
Easy to Manage
Program and database updates are
automatically performed behind the
scenes. If you're an individual or home
office user you can just 'install it and
forget it.' Businesses and organizations
with large distributed networks can use
the powerful Remote Administrator to
centrally deploy, install, monitor and
manage thousands of NOD32 workstations
and servers. Get the best protection
with the smallest footprint and fastest
performance. NOD32 offers multiple
layers of protection for your
organization, at the desktop, file
server and mail gateway. Find out which
is best for you.
Proactive Real-Time Detection
The best security is proactive. Malware
protection must be real-time at the
point of impact. Every minute one waits
for a virus signature update creates a
window of vulnerability that could have
devastating consequences. ESET NOD32's
ThreatSense®
Technology closes the
window of vulnerability left open by
other reactive, signature-based
responses.

NOD32 analyzes
application execution in real-time for
malicious intent to detect and block
over 90% of new malware threats
proactively, without the need for
signature updates in most cases. Most
other vendors release signatures hours
after their customers have been
victimized and submitted samples.

Protection
against threats from multiple input
vectors is provided by the following
modules:
Antivirus MONitor (AMON)
An on-access (memory-resident) scanner,
which automatically scans files before
they're accessed.
NOD32
An on-demand scanner, which can be run
manually on specific files or disk
segments. It can also be scheduled to
run during off-peak times.
Internet MONitor (IMON)
A memory-resident scanner that runs on
the Winsock level to prevent infected
files from reaching the computer's
disks. Its scans internet web browsing
traffic (HTTP) and incoming e-mail via
the POP3 protocol.
E-mail MONitor (EMON)
An auxiliary module for scanning
incoming/outgoing e-mails via the MAPI
interface, such as Microsoft Outlook
Microsoft Exchange.
Document MONitor (DMON)
Utilizes the proprietary Microsoft API
for scanning Microsoft Office documents
(including Internet Explorer).
