Bitdefender Activity Kills Firefox? (with Screen Shot)

edited November 2008 in General talk

My Bitdefender Internet security 2009 just received a particularity large update, which also contained the "System Bar" (until now my version had no Activity Scan Bar).


Since that update Firefox has been crashing apparently for no reason, out of the blue, even when there was no activity on the PC.


Then, I noticed that some of the crashes took place just after BD updated, or when I scanned a file for viruses, etc.


I cleared my FF's Error Console, and when it crashed again, here is what it gave me (notice the error right on top, "failed to load antiphishing Bitdefender component)


Any help, please?

    What Firefox version are you using?


    If you disable the Antiphising module from within the interface ,do you still have crashes?


    Have you tryed reinstalling Firefox?

    I'm using 2.0.0.17. And yes, I already deactivated the Antiphishing for Mozilla Firefox, and hid the bd toolbar in FF. Antiphishing still activated for IE/Messenger though.


    No, I haven't tried re-installing, was hoping it would be a common error.

    Using Firefox 3 instead can be a solution, it works for me :D
