Virus Blocked

BitDefender just starting blocking a virus every few minutes. They all have a similar extension:

...firefox/releases/3.04/update/win32/en-US/firefox-3.0.3-3.0.4.partial.mar

Is BD false identifying firefox trying to update or is this a legitimate concern? This hasn't occurred in the past when firefox tried to update.

Try putting your system protection level to default, firefox is trying to update, at least this was the case for me.

I'll try that if the message keeps popping up. Today it hasn't (and it actually allowed Firefox to tell me there was an update available).

I use Firefox and it work very fine with HAVP and ClamAV like scanner.

I have tried if it detect some virus on (http://testvirus.de/de/liste.html)

and it work very fine and all virus are rightly detected.

But if I try it on(www.eicar.org) it detect only the zipped file but not the

*.com and the *.txt, firefox let me download them without any problem!

If I try to make it with Internet Explorer HAVP identfy the virus in all types

of file(*.com, *.txt, *.zip, ecc.).

Where I wrong ?

Hello,

The issue has already been answered here: http://forum.bitdefender.com/index.php?s=&...ost&p=43745

If you still encounter the problem, please continue posting there.

MariaTom: Since your problem has absolutely nothing to do with BitDefender (or, at least, it doesn't appear to be, since you didn't mention anything about BitDefender in your post), your question will remain unanswered.

Cris.
