hello there, i am hamxa, and here to report a SERIOUS PROBLEM with the bitdefender products (Total Security 2008& Internet Security 2008)... i have tried both your products mentioned here, and they work great BUT both of them have a severe security breach!!! i.e. when i insert my flash drive (Creative MuVo TXFM 512 MB), the real time scanning abruptly terminates(without any notification) and this i figured out by checking the 'FileZone' bar as well as the EICAR test file !!! the realtime protection quits until the system is restarted.... it might also be noted that this is not the case with the kingston flash drives, that work just fine no matter what,,,, i have tried un/reinstalling your products, reformating my flash drive, even changing the filesystem form fat32 to fat, while i was evaluating your product, but no use...(Also that all the bitdefender services are 100% functional, and yet the realtime protection is inactive!) i must also mention that i consider my level of expertise to be quite advanced in terms of computers and hardwares, with a lot of troubleshooting skills too... point is i've tried my best to see if it was some lapse at my side but hate to say,,,no... here is the complete detail of the machine i am running bit defender total security(build 11.0.15) on...
Windows XP pro (32b)
Pentium M 1.7 GHz
400 MHz FSB, 2MB L2 Cache
Acer Notebook with 768 MB of ram.
60 GB hard drive.
also that my usb drivers are completely functional and no compatibility issues have been observed b/w the USB interfacing with other softwares....
previously i have been a fan of norton products( was running NIS-2007), but it disappointed me this year when vundo attacked.... this product of yours felt real good, but the solution to this anomaly is inevitable living in a corporate culture... please advise, AWAITING, HAMXA.
