same problem here, had to disable BitDefender just to get here and it doesn't matter which browser I try to use.

Well, anyone with any help on this subject? It happened all of a sudden and is VERY INCONVENIENT.

I was loving bitdefender until this. It would not even let me send in my problem via the program.

Starting to dislike bd2011

Hello,

this problem seems to be a never ending story...

The problem was solved on Nov27th (see the old thread) and today it's here again.

Nearly every single website is blocked by BitDefender. (google, amazon etc..)

Sorry guys but you can't be serious????

I'm paying for a software which doesn't help anything...

The 2010 version was great but since you realeased the 2011 version there are only problems....

(blocked websites, no windows indexing etc. etc.)

So again, Dec 6th 16.40MEZ - Websites are blocked again.

Please fix this as soon as possible, i need my computer and the internet for work!

I'm having this issue, too.I just uninstalled BD thru add remove programs as well as running the uninstall tool.Then, reinstalled and after discovering firefox pages being blocked I ran BD repair tool.

So, I'm guessing we can just wait for an update to fix it?

This is the only website I can access with BD enabled.

I checked and internet explorer pages are being blocked, as well.

Same thing is happening to me. It started three or four months ago and I cleared history/data, etc. and I haven't seen it happen in a couple months and all of a sudden just now at midnight on 12/9/10 it has blocked every website in my favorites and no matter how many times I clear my history and/or update/restart my PC it still blocks everything.

Also now my anti-phishing toolbar has disappeared and will not come back. I have disabled and re-enabled it with no luck.

Please help. I am running BitDefender 2011 IS with Win7x64 with Firefox (most recent version). Will changing browsers fix?

Please help.

Same here. It was working fine for the last month. Seems like they decided they wanted to break their program again. I can't access anything, and I had to restart 3 times within the last 15 minutes!

Why do we keep using this product?

Having the sa me issue on all sit: "This web page has been blocked by BitDefender Antivirus Real-time Protection!

The web page blocked by BitDefender included objects that were either infected or likely to be infected with a virus. Your system has NOT been infected."

****deleted cache, cookies, temp file, history---no avail

****http: scanning disabled---able to go thru some sites yahoo, google, but after 3-5 minutes of browsing blocks sites again.

Windows 7 64bit

I keep using this product because it is the best of the best. It has small issues like every other program out there.

But again please help ASAP.

This sounds like the same issue I am facing.

I use my computer every day for business and cannot afford to have my antivirus turned off so I can look at websites... hopefully a fix is coming... and soon.

I'm having same issue with BD 2011. I have to disable virus scanner to browse toys r us.com or yahoo.com, even microsoft.com. Hotmail is blocked. I could add all these to a whitelist. But shouldn't have too. Not too worried about security. So I just disable it. But would be nice if it did work correctly.

Have you received an answer to this? Thinking of dumping bit and get avg

Why do we keep using this product?

Because we paid with our hard earned money for it " />

But the trouble and Bugs never End !

My "hotmail" problem is not with the Real Time Protection function in the Antivirus module. I can activate or deactivate the Real Time Protection without any impact on the problem. My hotmail problem is with BD Firewall. I can access hotmail if I deactivate BD Firewall.

On a Dell Optiplex GX620 2.8 GHz computer running Windows XP Professional SP3 I run Bit Defender Internet Security 2011 with Real-time security and Standard security level (with web traffic scanning enabled) Version 14.02.25.330 and with the latest Engine 7.34988 and Virus signatures 6386590, rebooted my system, and am still not getting access to hotmail. When I can't reach hotmail via Internet Explorer 8, a Windows XP problem solver pops up to help investigate the problem. It reports that it is not possible to make any internet connection via HTTP (port 80), HTTPS (port 443) or FTP (port 21) and that I should check the firewall. This hotmail problem has started during the last 5 days. I installed BD2011 beginning of November and was able to access hotmail in November.

Will continue with BD Firewall turned off and Windows Firewall turned on. Would prefer to have BD Firewall active as I think it should be a better firewall.

Regards,

I have had this happen too. Is there any solution? I restart my PC and it seems to go away but it is very annoying especially when you are in the middle of doing something. Anyone know how to fix this? Is this fixed through and update? or something we need to do?

I had this happen to me again this evening--one second everything was fine, and then one more click (on a different page within the same domain even) and all of a sudden the entire internet was being blocked. Couldn't access, for instance, Google, yahoo, etc.

Setting protection level to "permissive" (i.e. turning off HTTP scanning) solved the problem, obviously, but turning it back on immediately blocked everything again.

I updated BitDefender (no idea if the update actually changed anything related to the problem) then cleared my entire internet history--cache, passwords, preferences, etc.--and then rebooted.

Everything seems to be working fine now, but I'm a little mystified by this same issue happening over and over again, and it's annoying to have to clear my history every time this happens.

Direct question for moderator(s):

Is the cause of this problem known to BD coders?

a If yes, then when will it be fixed?

b If no, then why not? It seems to be happening regularly to enough people that it should be easy to figure out and/or reproduce.

If this keeps up then I guess I'll need to investigate other security suites instead of renewing.

Is there some reason we can't get the solution on the website? Is there some secret decoder ring we need or something? I own FOUR licenses for these products just for my personal machines. I'd appreciate "the fix" as well--and why isn't it being sent out en masse (or even run in Update) since the problem seems to be so widespread?

I have had this product for just one month and I have been blocked from websites for two periods of time now, I had to research and find this site in order to find a workaround to the problem but that is inexcusable as a solution. I also own 4 licenses to this software and bought them due to the high rating it was given. I am reluctant to install it on my other computers due to the ongoing problems with this particular glitch and the inexperience of others using my other computers to use the workaround that I use. It is very frustrating and inexcusable for bit defender not to have a permanent fix for this problem.

What the ######. Everything is blocked again. This is becoming a very crappy product very quickly if this keeps up. I have work to get done and your product is making me less productive. I have already done the clear cache, restart crap, to try and fix this piece of junk. Do you not test your updates before sending them out.

LOL - everything is blocked again. Wikipedia, Google - everything!

It's the 5th oder more time this issue appears.

Sorry, but what are your programers doing? It should be possible to fix this problem forever?

It really annoys me.

This issue has me stumped. As many times as I've seen it posted here over the past several weeks, it has never happened to me on either of my PCs.

Wow - This is insane. I just installed 2011 to replace my 2010 that has expired. This thing is a nightmare. Anyone have any idea's as to how to fix this for newer versions? I just downloaded it. I work online, so it's pretty important that sites are working. Google, Yahoo, Amazon - are you kidding me? I would like to stay with BitDefender, as their service seems to be pretty good, but really? Too bad - 2010 was awesome!

Hi king123,

Instructions on how to further investigate the situation are present in the e-mail I sent you. Please reply me.

I am waiting for your answer.

Thank you!

I had this issue about a week ago, but turning my laptop off and then turning it back on the next day (i got tired of messing around with different bitdefender settings, it was late, so i just shut my laptop off and said i'd deal with it in the morning) after that, everything worked fine till now.

i'm having this issue now, where every website is blocked and the only way i was able to get here was going in under Antivirus / Custom Level and disabling the scanning of web (HTTP) traffic. tried this a few times so far and it works till i re-enable the web (HTTP) traffic scanning.

i'd really like some help, isn't there anyway you could post help to users publicly instead of having to send them private emails? if not (don't know why) then please send me some help via email.

i'm running BitDefender Total Security 2011

any help is greatly appreciated, i'm also having issues with BitDefender really slowing down my laptop with tons of hard drive activity, while the system is just sitting still or after i type in a url in firefox, then it slows down and it takes a bit to get to any site. i didn't have too many issues with 2010 other than the excessive drive activity where the machine slows to a crawl and it takes 5 or 10 minutes for the system to become responsive again, versions 2008 and 2009 seemed to work fine, only updating to 2011 did i really start having issues with web activity, but the hard drive issues are still going on and that gets really irritating waiting to gain control over my laptop again.

my laptop is a:

Alienware m9750

Dual GeForce 8700M GT(s) (SLI)

4GB DDR2 SDRAM

100GB OCZ Vertex LE 2.5" Solid State Drive (os / programs)

320GB Western Digital BEKT-22F3T0 Hard Drive (storage)

Windows XP SP3

but i guess i will do a search and find the thread for the hard drive issues, any help on this issue (HTTP) is greatly appreciated, thanks!

Resolved (AGAIN) as of 10:45 a.m. PST 12/14/10

"Scan web (HTTP) traffic" checked and pages loading normally... pretty quick fix this time around.

Hooray, it's fixed...that's a good thing, I agree.

BUT, I'd still appreciate some sort of official word from BitDefender techs/coders regarding the cause of this problem, and what was actually done to (hopefully) fix it for good this time.

Or is it something they're actually unaware of, that's just fixed periodically and temporarily as a side-effect of other changes, and it will happen again in a few days or a few weeks?

Communication is good, folks; especially with disgruntled customers who are considering not giving you money in the future.

Anyone?
