    Hello :)


    Let's see if the PC is infected.


    In order to be able to further investigate the reported situation we need a bit more information from your computer as follows:


    . A BDSYS log;


    [how to GENERATE A BDSYS LOG]


    . Save and extract the BDSYS tool to a location of your choice:


    http://www.bitdefender.com/files/Knowledge.../BDSysLog_i.exe


    . Make sure you close all active applications and then run "BDSysLog_i.exe"; If you receive a firewall alert,select to Allow the application to connect;


    . Click the "Create log" button to start generating the log; A progress bar is indicating that the tool is creating the report;


    . When the small window appears with the message "Log saved" then the report is complete and a new file named "bdsyslog.zip" has appeared on your Desktop;


    . Upload that file on


    http://www.sendspace.com


    or


    http://www.mediafire.com


    and post here the download link.


    IMPORTANT:


    .During this process the Real Time Protection in Bitdefender must be temporarily disabled;


    .If you receive a Bitdefender Firewall alert to inform you that BDSysLog_i.exe tries to connect to the internet,then you need to select Allow;


    [how to DISABLE THE ANTIVIRUS PROTECTION in Bitdefender 2013]


    In order to disable the antivirus protection, please open Bitdefender and click the "Settings" button in the upper side part of the interface"; In the new window go to "Antivirus" > "Shield" tab and click on "ON" under On-access scanning. Select the time interval that suites your troubleshooting needs and click "OK". The On-access scanning should be enabled back after finishing the troubleshooting procedure.


    We will get back to you as soon as the analysis is complete.


    Have a nice day!

    Hello :)


    The issue was escalated to our developers.


    As a workaround you can use this:

    until the situation will be resolved via Automatic Updates.


    Thank you!

  • Do I have to use the workaround or can I just wait for the new update that suppose to be released?

    Hello :)


    You can use it only if you want to run a System Scan. In this way, you wont receive those ignored items at the end of the scan.


    When the update will be released, I will post here:

    Thank you!

  • Hello :)


    A product update was released. Your build should be 16.20.0.1483(please right click on Bitdefender icon from system tray-near the clock-and choose "About". You should see in the left side the build number).


    In order for the product update to be installed, you need to reboot your machine(you should see in the Events -> "Reboot required" under the Update module).
