Firefox 8 And Bitdefender Antiphishing Toolbar

Anti-spam & antiphishing toolbar of BitDefender Antivirus 2012 is working on my Firefox 9.0.

At first I was bugged by constant pop-up of "certificate error" but I managed to put an exception and anti-phishing toolbar can be seen now in my browser and is working.

Here is how I do it:

1. On Firefox menu click "Tools" - "Options" - "Advance" - "Encryption" - "View Certificates"

2. Certificate Manager window will appear, click "Servers" - "Add Exception"

3. Add Security Exception window will appear, in the box "Location" enter https://us.data.toolbar.yahoo.com, click "Get Certificate"

4. Ignore whatever warning written there, make sure to tick checkbox of "Permanently store this exception" then click "Confirm Security Exception"

5. OK and restart Firefox.

Hello

The toolbar from Bitdefender 2012 is compatible with All versions of Firefox, and the one from Bitdefender 2011 will be soon.

Thank you for your feedback.

Happy New Year!

I am using licensed BitDefender Antivirus Plus 2012 and the same issue happened. There is certificate error in Firefox 8 & Firefox 9 for Bitdefender antiphishing toolbar. I solved that by following the procedure I posted above. I am trying to help here so if there are users who are also experiencing such problem you can try my solution. I think it will work on any bitdefender version.

I have waited for a long time since Firefox 8 came out with the notice that BitDefender Toolbar is incompatible with the current browser. But now, still, there isn't a solution to this problem. Don't tell us to purchase the newer version of antivirus software, and really,I was always encouraging people around me to purchase BitDefender as the antivirus software just as I am, thinking that it has a great attitude in service and solving problems, but now I am disappointed. It's been 3 months, and the technical team still didn't come out a way to fix this, how come?
