Some Issues With Acronis True Image 10

I'm running Windows XP Pro SP2. and I use Acronis® True Image Home® version 10.0 (build 4,942) for image back ups of my hard drives.


After the back up image is created, Acronis has the options of mounting the drive image , with it's own drive letter, in either read only mode or read/write mode . With BitDefender antivirus V10, I could mount my drive images in either mode.


However, after upgrading to BitDefender Antivirus 2008 my back up drive images can only be mounted in read/write mode. Attempts to mount in read mode will "freeze" my computer, and can only be fixed by turning off my computer and restarting.


The problem is I prefer to mount my images in read mode, because mounting in read/write mode will result in a new, un-needed incremental back up being created, which can be quite large.


This issues needs to be fixed.
