Are cryptominers using your device without your knowledge? from: static-hello.bitdefender.com
received an email today from "static-hello.bitdefender.com," which appeared to change the application date to today's date and prompted "grant full disk access." System preferences already had the boxes checked but were grayed out because access needs to be unlocked first. This all seems very strange to me, but if it is…

This website with rare behavior is not detected by Virustotal
Hi, what happens? [*url removed by @Flexx*] When I visited the website my RAM reached 100% in a matter of a few seconds and no antivirus engine sees this website as malicious. An interesting fact is that this attitude occurs only sometimes, as if this malicious behavior is trying to hide itself without attracting attention.

Were these attacks real?
Before I got Bitdefender, I called a number that was supposed to be McAfee technical help but I came to suspect was a scam. The person I talked to had me give him control of my PC and then he quickly showed me a list of times my computer had been attacked recently. It was a long and impressive list! He said it would cost…

Suspicious page blocked from bitdefender
bitdefender has started blocking a suspicious web page this evening. It seems to be linked to GamePass for PC.

Cannot disabale some features (file extensions/task manager).
Good evening, I'm here to have some clarifications. It's a little while since I can't hide the file extensions from the File Manager. I know, 'cause I've read something in this forum, that it's a security feature of the antivirus to prevent the that an exe could mimic another file (like a PDF in example). But I consider…

Music Thread
I've read some posts by members on the "What are your hobbies", and "Tell us about yourself" threads who have mentioned that they liked and appreciated listening to music, as I'm sure most of us do 😊 So I thought to create a thread where we could share some of our favorites. I'm not sure what format would be supported,…

Why is my screen occasionally dimming/flashing, similar to how a screen capture does?
My macpro (M1, Sonoma 14.5) screen occasionally dims/flashes similar to how a screen capture tool does. I've checked the Accessibility settings and the "Flash the screen when an alert sound occurs" is OFF. It could be something innocuous, but it also could be a screen shot capture function of MS Teams, or a virus or…

Can I use BD to check if an online download is safe before I click on the download button?
For example: I went to the sejda . com / desktop webpage. There is a huge green button that says Free Download.

I don't know. BUT is…
