RAV antivirus, RAV VPN
My desktop PC was recently infected with a virus calling itself RAV antivirus and RAV VPN. Bit-defender didn't detect it even after I ran a boot scan.

BitDefender Free pop up has me slightly concerned.
Earlier today I got this BitDefender offer pop up. It was a small white box in the bottom right corner of my screen (where the offers usually are). My feeling, after the panic subsided, is that this wasn't evidence of a virus but just that the offer didn't display properly for some reason. When this popped up the…

Thanks Bitdefender
Not exactly an expert input, but just to say thanks to the people behind the app (free version!). Today it notified me - and dealt with - a ransomware attack (.venus). No idea where it came from, but it was quarantined and deleted. My brother-in-law in Australia (lawyer) was not so lucky some months back. Very grateful.

Appearance of images in desktop search bar after connection to internet
