The Windows Defender allow/block list incorrectly identifies ESET Anti virus as
ESET (ESS) Smart Security.

This is a nuisance since the user will assume that she/he has installed the incorrect software.
 
I am wondering if MSE does the same thing since WD is built inside it
too bad you cannot test this then you can go on the MSE forum and report it

I have no idea if MSE has the same default behaviour, I doubt it since MSE was
built from the ground up and has really nothing to do with WD, unless I'm mistaken.

I just posted the info for the benefit of the MS Folks that look in here.

It's not worth posting this in the MSE Forum, Robin since it doesn't relate to MSE.
