    in my IS 2012 version,the button for enabling paranoid mode is present.but if i enabling it,the automatic updates and autoscan immediately disabled :(


    in this case,i receive any alert by the firewall.but autopilot is not reactivabled again!and no autoscan and automatic updates!

    Yes , because u dont have the final version. Download the final version from here: http://www.bitdefender.co.uk/, and your problem is solved, except the one above, like mine...no paranoid mode, and no firewall :)

    I think it's a serious bug with the final release version of this gravity


    perhaps we needed to wait a bit,before release the final version,and offer consumers the ability to choose the action to be taken when threats are detected,and choose which applications can be authorized or not,with the firewall.


    with this version,will encourage users to beginners and more experienced than disappointed, I think :)

    Try to uninstall with Bitdefender Uninstall Tool mate. then download this version from here (link below). Do not download full install version. 


    http://download.cnet.com/BitDefender-Internet-Security/3000-18510_4-10540275.html?part=dl-&subj=dl&tag=button


    this version will download new install files from bitdefender server then install it. Hope it work for you. Since i have the same version as you do and i have paranoid mode even though there some bugs.

    Hi again.


    After a few days i decided to try again, to see if any bugs have been repaired. Well still disappointed. No paranoid mode again in the last version, no allow deny pop-up, and i mean not at all, all leak test i've tried just failed. I see autopilot is working now though. Sad :(

    You are using an old kit with an old build.


    The latest build is 14.0.27.312


    Here's the correct kit:

    This kit i used comes with bitdefender online installation. Ill try the new one. Thank you!

    For this mode, you need more flexible configuration.

    Well i did a new install with the kit u given me. The paranoid mode is back on, but the old bugs came along with it. When enabling paranoid mode and IDS, automatic scan, auto update, bitdefender toolbar are off. After enabling all this, they are off again when i restart. And encryption is not working either. I guess i will be back to 2011 version witch is working great, until this product will be bugs free.

    One thing-> from what i see everything is linked to that paranoid mode. When is off, everything is fine, when is on everything is a mess. Just a thought.

    that no moderator can answer about these bugs? there are so many bugs in this final version, and not even get an answer? as the solution to the problems mentioned?

    Hello,


    Sorry for my late response but had to check on some things before submitting my post. The paranoid mode wasn't available in the first versions of the BitDefender 2012 however, it was added with the final release. This feature is the opposite of Autopilot therefore you can't enable Autopilot if you also have Paranoid mode on. Furthermore, please note that paranoid mode is set to turn off autopilot if ON when paranoid mode is being activated.


    Paranoid mode will enable ALL notifications for: Firewall, IDS and AVC.


    Fretless: have you tried reinstalling BitDefender 2012, download the latest kit then install it ? Is the Paranoid mode option still not available after the reinstall ? Have you tried with the Paranoid mode ON to enable Autopilot ?


    One thing-> from what i see everything is linked to that paranoid mode. When is off, everything is fine, when is on everything is a mess. Just a thought.


    @Qlimax1975: the option is designed to do what its name suggests: to put BitDefender in a very high state of security. Can you please define what you mean by "everything is a mess" ? Thank you!

    @ DanyDan: As you said. The paranoid mode will only affect with auto pilot. If we want to use auto pilot, we have to turn off paranoid mode and if we turn on paranoid mode, the auto pilot will deactivated itself? so why the paranoid mode still affect with auto scan and auto update? what i mean is why auto scan and auto update deactivated itself like auto pilot when the paranoid mode is being turned on?

    The "about:blank" issue is related to the Antivirus module, not the Firewall. It has been discussed in this topic and in this topic.
