Bdis V10 - Update Failing
I tried to upgrade to BDIS 2008, but had too many problems, so I uninstalled it. I finally got most/all 2008 cleaned off the computer, and re-installed BDIS v10. Everything seemed to go smoothly, and the initial update and quickscan completed. Now, my Vista security center says that BDIS is outdated and needs to be updated. I have tried Updates/Update Now several times, but keep getting an error of invalid MD5.
I am running BDIS v10, on Vista Home Premium 32-bit...with the AV and Firewall enabled. No other AV or firewall is installed or running. Here is a screenshot of the failed update...
Help please?

Sorry to double post, can't find how to edit my own post...
The failed update fixed itself. After a while, I got a pop-up from BitDefender telling me it updated/upgraded to the newest build of version 10, and needed me to reboot. I rebooted, and that seems to have taken care of the failing update, and the security center alert is gone from my system tray.

Hello Fallstar,
The MD5 error has multiple possible causes, which include:- update servers are in process of synchronizing (this happens when new update files are uploaded on the servers).
- slow/fluctuating internet connection, which leads to update packets corruption (and they fail the check after they are downloaded)
- another firewall on the network corrupts the packets (maybe the firewall of your ISP)
In the case of MD5 error, the only solution is to retry updating after a few moments (maybe an hour).
