    Solution




    • The -1004 error stands for "Could not connect to Proxy or Server" or on the BitDefender Engine - File and Definition Update Servers. 

    • BitDefender version 6 uses new URLs to download definitions

    • To resolve, please whitelist the following domains over port 80 and 443:

      • *.remote.management

      • *.logicnow.us

      • *.cdn-sw.net

      • *.bitdefender.net

      • *.bitdefender.com

      • *.v1.bdnsrt.org

    Thanks BD. looks like you put some effort into finding all that.  I also started to notice that some settings would not apply.  I could set them, but they would be changed back when I looked again.  I reinstalled everything and all is good now.  thanks again.
