BITDEFENDER TOTAL SECURITY / THREAT DETECTED IN THUNDERBIRD E-MAIL CLIENT
Recently a Bitdefender Scan (Total Security 2024) detected a threat (Trojan.CVE_2024_21413.3.Gen) in one of the folders on my desktop Thunderbird e-mail client (v.115.8.1 64-bit.) Unfortunately, Bitdefender could not identify the specific message(s) where the infection was detected, only the folder. Initially, I just let…

Exceptions - Return Control Back to Us Users
Bitdefender DOES NOT respect my choices for exceptions. In fact, some options, such as "Advanced Threat Defense" are grayed out. I really do not care if Bitdefender thinks creating an exception for a thumb drive or mapped volume is unwise. It's MY computer, not Bitdefender's. If I don't want something scanned, that's MY…

Firewall - Alert Mode - Cannot turn on

I didn't do this and it was working quite recently. If I click on it the radio button change for a moment and then back to off. I never see the blue colour of…

Bitdefender not keeping scheduled scan
Hey all, I have used Bitdefender Total Security for several years for my home PC. I have always scheduled a full system scan every day at 1:00 am. About 3 or 4 days ago, Bitdefender did not run the system scan and it hasn't run since then. After looking into it a bit further, the scheduled system scan at 1:00 am appeared…

Regarding Unmatching Security Certificate Warning
I'm a hobbyist who follows a number of web sites for my interests: Scale modelling, motor racing, military, naval and aviation history. None of these involve purchases or financial information, and often I'm not registered as a member on these sites. With some sites that I've visited in the past, and bookmarked, I'm now…

Email Protection Only for Outlook or Gmail?
I tried to activate email protection but it asks for a Gmail or Outlook account. I won't use either because of lack of security. Myself and my company use Zohomail, which you do not support for some reason. Do I have to shop for yet another security suite? This is my third one. None of them seem to do what they say.…

Cannot enable Bitdefender Total Security Firewall
Hi, I'm on Windows 11. On my Protection dashboard in Total Security, my Firewall is disabled and when I try to reenable it, the toggle goes back to grey again. My Base Filtering Engine is on Automatic startup and is running, but I simply cannot get the firewall to toggle on. Any suggestions?

Is there a way to turn off recommendations in the BD dashboard?
I find the recommendations in BitDefender's dashboard very annoying. After setting up the program and choosing what I want to use, I have no desire to see recommendations for functions (VPN, Password Manager, etc.) I've already decided not to use. In addition to being annoying, they're a waste of space. Is there anyway to…

Certificat incorect
Salut Am mai scris despre aceasta. O gramada de site-uri sint blocate de Bitdefender pe motivul ca certficatul este incorect. Numai in luna Decembrie, si sintem in 10, am peste 30 de alerte, respectiv blocaje, toate bazindu-se pe certificat incorect. In discutiile cu Suport, nu ajungi la nicio concluzie. Ei nu recunosc ca…

Allow SMB (Samba) access
In Firewall Rules add a rule to the "All Applications" category. You'll need one rule for each samba server. You'll also need to have a fixed IP address for each server (unless someone can tell me how to specify a range of addresses). Suppose your systems are on the 192.168.x.x subnet and 192.168.1.15 is a samba server. In…

Does bitdefender block malicious content on websites?
I am using the free version of the Bitdefender software. I don't have the Firefox add-on installed. I went on a website called "wallpaperflare.com" and I received a Bitdefender pop-up stating that it had blocked a website called "custodycraveretard.com". I don't remember the exact phrasing of the Bitdefender pop-up, but it…

Long malware removal time.
I wonder why Bitdefender takes a long time to delete a malware file even if it is recognized by real-time protection and therefore is in the anti-malware signatures. While doing some tests I noticed that it takes up to 1 minute. 1 minute to delete a malware file from your desktop? Seems a bit excessive to me.... Other AVs…

utorrentie.exe getting blocked by BD as malware
Hi everyone, just got this from my bitdefender app and was wondering if this is actual malware or it's because of the same issue as the deff.nelreports.net notifications due to microsoft no longer signing the ie/msn certificates. I've attached a picture here for your reference and hope to hear from you soon. Thank You!!!…

Bitdefender RAM Usage Gradually Increases
Apparently this issue has been around for quite some time. It's getting worse day by day and has gotten to a point that bdservicehost Ram usage reaches up to 40GB (Out of 64GB RAM) and either my computer crashes or BD itself! It seems that BD Support doesn't intend to do anything regarding this issue. I've been using BD…

Bitdefender corrupted the Cyberghost VPN update
I recently started an update for Cyberghost VPN and Bitdefender thought there was a malicious process involved in it (it never did before for several years) and "protected" my system. Now Cyberghost won't run as it cannot start itself in services and prompts the the installation was probably corrupted. I tried reinstalling…

Alerts on apps accessing the network
When Bitdefender shows an alert that an "app has changed and is trying to access the network", what good do you think that message is doing in providing us enough info to think with?!? If an app has just been updated, can BD not confirm it was an update from known update servers? Is it really too difficult to write some…
