BitDefender Antivirus 2010


As of today, 3/22/10, what should the proper Engine Version be. After updating I have 7.28887.


Also does BitDefender provide this information on their support web site and if so can you please provide me a link.


I apologize if this question has been answered before but I got tired of trying to find an answer reading/searching through all of the threads.

    Can someone from BitDefender please reply to this. It has been some time since I posted this.

  • The latest I have now after recent updates is 7.30911.

  • 7.30911 here too

  • Hello all,


    The update system is now working as it should, so engine and signature updates are provided automatically each hour for all BitDefender products. This means the engine version will increase (along with the Signatures number).

  • Thank you for answering.


    But...I uninstalled BitDefender on my PC.


    I am currently not using any AV program. I did not use one for the past 8 years and never got a virus...I just set rules and abide by them. I think it is time to go back to this. I will leave it on the other PC's on the home network. I purchased a 2 year license and it still has about a year left. I am a musician and my PC has too much of my own recorded music on it to take a risk. I have noticed that certain audio files in my songs do not play correctly anymore and this is quite upsetting, I can't prove it but this started happening after the fiasco an my suspicions are what they are.


    I feel bad for BitDefender because this is my nature but this was a bad scene that really messed a lot of folks up. A six month extension may work for some but my solution is to walk away and never look back.


    Regards,

    It means you are lucky, I guess... :)


    Could you tell us which rules you set that prevent you from getting a malware?


    Linux? the more popular it will be, the less safe, I'm afraid.


    Not only because we all know that if we avoid to surf anywhere, especially to download cracks and keygens, we are less likely to get poisoned by a bad soft, but unless you put your computer out of the internet link, out of external copies of drives you analyzed on first hand as safe, you could be infected by a naive friend whose mail is corrupted.


    It happened to friends who are very cautious (but they are not geeks, they hardly surf farther than the provider's meteo page or the railroad's schedule, but two years after they had their first computer without any malwares, ka bong! a friend (a computer engineer!) sent them a beautiful game (genuine cards, bridge, so so) in which was included a big adware (trojan and false antispyware) that pretend to find spywares. It was difficult to get rid of this pest.


    O.K. These friends never buy on line, never give sensitive information, so the spyware was not destructive as well, just annoying until we scratched it.


    But the friend who worked in a tech department could have been more cautious too. :D


    Besides, I know viruses make antivirus companies live as well... ^_^


    Tell us the way to be sure not to be infected as far as we use internet...


    :rolleyes:


    Have a nice day,
