I switched to eset security, and now it asks to let it connect when i boot windows. Asks once, wether I make a rule or not. Should I be worried? I have no viruses except for a few game trainers.

I say don't worry about it. It'll let you know if something goes devastatingly wrong.
Plus, not downloading (and/or running) sketchy files has a user pretty safe to begin with.

Firstly, good choice Now, as for the prompt, allow it. It shouldn't be coming up as Eset has a known list of trusted windows processes, but for some reason it fails on certain ones. I take it you are running the firewall in interactive mode; that been the case, tick to allow it always and hit OK
