The new version of ESET antivirus crashes the outlook addin. (ver 9.1)
The problem occurs when closing an email where a TadxOlForm is installed.
When the email is closed, an accsess violation error is generated and most of the time the whole Outlook is shut down.
If the antivirus program is turned off, there is no error. I have never had a problem with previous versions of ESET.
With a simple test program with just a add-in form on the email, you can reproduce the error.
I have seen others have had similar problems before.
Do you know of a solution?

Thank you for your reply!

I've read the topic you cited, but disabling the antivirus is not a real solution, it's not a viable option for security reasons.

However, one of our customers is already getting the error when using Panda antivirus.

This is why I asked if there is any progress on this issue.

This is an ongoing issue and I am working (indirectly, unfortunately) with ESET through the local distributors sending logs to try and resolve this.
I will post on my original when ESET come up with a fix.

ESET have provided me with an Outlook test add-in that doesn?Â?Ð?ét cause the issue, so I assume they will be fixing it in the next release.
