ESET has been beta testing ESET Smart Security 5 & ESET NOD32 Anti-Virus version 5
currently these beta's are potential RC's ( Release Candidates - meaning they are near the end of the beta basically ) that can be downloaded and used for free.......
( I recommend registering before downloading the beta, so you can get a discount offer to purchase ESET SS 5 / Nod32 v.5 once it goes final and the beta expires )
if you are a current ESET SS 4 or NOD32 ver. 4 User with a vaild license, then
ESET will let you automatically upgrade Free of Charge to SS 5 or NOD32 ver. 5 of their software...
ESET's URL to their beta download page & overview: http://www.eset.com/us/beta/smart-security-5
hope this might be useful to some of you

Tequilla some of the changes they ar implementing are
Gamer mode
One simple click, lets you suspend pop-up notifications, scanning, and scheduled tasks while in full-screen mode. Gamer mode minimizes system resource usage to give you Less Lag. More Frag.™
Improved antispam
Block spam with an even higher level of precision and added log capabilities.
Quick startup
Lets you start working on your computer immediately after boot-up without compromising security.
Enhanced media control
Prevent the spread of malware through USB flash drives, CDs, and DVDs. Detailed controls allow you to block specific media based on a range of parameters like the device ID, media type, and serial number.
Now even easier to use
Redesigned GUI with shortcuts to the Most Frequently Used Actions, contextual menus and icons as well as easier navigation of Advanced Setup tree.
Smarter firewall
Defend against remote attacks with more robust traffic filtering, including customized profiles with specific rules for different network zones.
Host-Intrusion Prevention System (HIPS)
Additional level of security against unauthorized updates to the system registry, processes and programs.\
I have upgraded to it and I will lwr you know how it is going.

it was just an update to let people who use ESET know that version 5.0 is nearly out for use, and that for those with a valid license, they can upgrade from ESET Smart Security 4 or NOD32 ver.4 to ESET SS5 or NOD32 ver. 5 for free
or for those that do not currently have and would like to try ESET, they can download this version 5 beta ( both 32bit or 64 bit versions ) and use it and if they register with ESET, they might even receive a discount coupon to buy SS5 or NOD32 v5 when the beta is over.....
I have been using the beta myself on a crappy old IBM Thinkpad a friend gave me to see how different it is verse my current ESET SS4 I have had for awhile now......
