In a press release on Tuesday Eset announced that they will be releasing the Vista-compatible NOD32 antivirus later on today. It will be version 2.7 and will be “one of the few malware solutions on the market today that is fully compatible with x64 versions of Vista, Windows XP and Windows Server 2003.”

The press release also talks about a better anti-stealth monitor that will be included in this release:

The upgrade to ESET NOD32 also features enhanced anti-stealth technology that offers more comprehensive protection against rootkits through its ability to see the true state of running processes and the file system. Rootkits enable hackers to maintain control of a compromised system by hiding their presence.

Previously there was a Beta version of NOD32 2.7 posted for users to try out and hunt down bugs. The new version is only an intermittent release because the Eset Security Suite is expected to be out early next year. That suite will not only offer protection from trojans and malware but it also includes a spyware and firewall monitor for even more added security.

I used to have NOD32 as my antivirus scanner because it offers amazing protection and has virtually no footprint on your system. When I came across Avast!, however, I couldn’t help but switch because it was a no-cost solution that also offered great protection. The other great thing about Avast! is that you can run it on your system and completely forget about it: you’ll hardly be able to know that it is running and best of all you’ll never have to worry about your subscription expiring.

This year’s hot new feature in HDTVs is 3D, but just as fast as the products have rolled out, complaints have come in the form of comments and editorials, citing the glasses, dearth of content and lack of interoperability between different manufacturer’s TVs and glasses. Nielsen and the Cable & Television Association for Marketing have completed what they claim is the first comprehensive study including exposure to 3DTV content with qualitative focus groups and a quantitative study. Analyst wordplay aside, what Frank Stagliano, Nielsen general manager of TV Primary Research calls a “marketing challenge” becomes apparent with the numbers of consumers saying they are likely to buy a 3DTV in the next year dropping after they experience it and consider the additional cost and limited content, with 57% taking issue with the necessary glasses. Though the same number of people said 3DTV made them feel like part of the action, those kinds of responses explain the hype over glasses free technology, despite its significant limitations. While more people than ever will get the chance to get their eyes on 3D football, tennis and movies this weekend, manufacturers and retailers should prepare for a hard time coaxing consumers to buy in immediately (exclusive content is not helping) with the possible exception of videogamers — 71% of hardcore and regular gamers were interested in playing in 3D.

Nielsen survey shows high interest in 3DTV, low interest in paying for it right now originally appeared on Engadget on Sat, 11 Sep 2010 01:52:00 EDT. Please see our terms for use of feeds.

So, you didn’t wait for those forthcoming Kinect bundles to ship before picking up a new Xbox 360, huh? Good on you. Now that you’ve had all summer to break ‘er in, we’re keenly interested in knowing how exactly you — the dear consumer — would change Microsoft’s slimmer, edgier Xbox 360. Would you have crafted a more stackable case? Thrown in a Blu-ray drive for obvious reasons? Included four controllers and a game for a nominal fee? Packed more than 250GB of hard drive space? Retooled the controller at the time of launch, rather than… say, last week? Go ahead and get real in comments below. Just keep it halfway sane down there.
