Bitdefender Blocking Qttask.exe
Sometime late last week I noticed that upon starting up my computer, a popup would appear saying that Bitdefender's IDS had blocked QTTask.exe because it had been deemed has malicious. It did if for a couple of days, then quit, only to start doing it again just this morning, except now it's saying it's terminating qttask, not blocking it (I don't know if that really means anything or not). I'm curious to see if this a false positive or if maybe my computer's infected with something? I've tried doing some research and so far I'm stymied. The file appears to be the legit Quicktime file, but if it is, why is BD blocking it?
