Hi MKairys, Is your operating system 32-bit or 64-bit? If it is 64-bit and Cygwin is for 64-bit platform try rebase at a bigger address: 0x3500000000. Or post your complete OS version and Cygwin version. Cheers! My OS at the time was Vista 32-bit. At this time I am no longer using BitDefender, but thanks for the suggestion.

... paying less for something that doesn't work isn't really saving anything. Good point

I for one have abandoned BD because of this issue. (I am going with Microsoft Security Essentials for now.)

I'm afraid BD Support has given up on this one. It has been over two weeks since they last contacted me regarding my support case, and that was only to repeat suggestions already given in this thread. In fairness to them I should say I don't know what the solution would be, except possibly an enhancement to the AVC…

If I have to give one up, BD will be the one. Likewise.

I think I shall go take a look at Microsoft Security Essentials.

Sigh. There are over 800 .exe files in my cygwin/bin. Of course I don't use them all, but I use at least 50 or so, and I don't know for example which are used in turn by commands I do use. I suppose I could approach this iteratively and keep adding files as I need them, but it doesn't look pretty. The browse window for the…

Windows Vista SP2, BD AV 2010 I have the same problem. Vunerability > Status has "Other Microsoft updates" in red although Vunerability > Settings has "Regular Windows Updates" unchecked. If I check it ans then uncheck it again, and go back to Status, "Other Microsoft updates" is gone. Images attached to make the point…

It doesn't. I went from 0x10000000 by 0x3000000 as you suggested, until I got to 0x90000000 at which point nothing worked at all.

I am not finished with this problem I see. I have BD AV 2010 on two systems, desktop and laptop, very similar as far as O/S and other software. On the laptop rebase -b 0x35000000 worked as I said. On the desktop however I have not found a vaule that works; I have tried 0x20000000 - 0x80000000. Should I continue in this…

rebase -b 0x35000000 cygwin_tmp.dll That seems to have worked.

As of this morning's update (engine version 7.27319) I find that disabling the AVC does fix the problem. Also I confirm that I am seeing the same error as you.

Go into Expert Mode, then Antivirus then click on BD AVC Settings and disable it. Well, that sounded promising, but didn't fix it.

If you still have BitDefender and Google Desktop installed please follow the steps bellow : Thank you for your reply, Alex, but I have never had Google Desktop installed.

Earlier in this thread both OP's stated they had installed AV only and had not previously installed any other BD product. It was simply a bug in AV.

BD official support is thin to non-existent. Well, it was BD official support who supplied the fix...

It turned out that fix was only temporary. About two weeks later they came up with the definitive fix, as follows: In order to remove the Antispam plugin please reboot the PC in Safe Mode and then go to C:\Program Files\BitDefender\BitDefender 2009. Here look for bdsmtpp.dll and bdpop3p.dll. Rename their extension into…

As of this morning (actually as of sometime after 11 PM EST last night) I am not seeing BitDefender scan logs in my message headers.

Today BitDefender support sent me the following: The Antispam will be removed from the Antivirus 2009 in an update on Monday. Now, the .dll file that is in charge with the context menu is called bdshelxt.dll located in C:\Program Files\BitDefender\BitDefender 2009. The command to disable it is: regsvr32 /u bdshelxt.dll. I…

regsvr32 -u "%ProgramFiles%\BitDefender\BitDefender 2009\antispam.dll" regsvr32 -u "%ProgramFiles%\BitDefender\BitDefender 2009\bdo.dll" I don't have either of those dll's on my system. I did find a tempting file named antispam.xml, with tempting entries like: <ScanSpam>1</ScanSpam> <Treshold>7</Treshold>…

Thank you Niels for that hint; I expect you are on the right track. I have submitted a support request and will post here anything I learn. It occurs to me that the worst part of this gaffe (or so I call it) is that there is no UI into it; hence no way to whitelist a sender or declare a message "not spam". I have several…

I have just installed BitDefender AntiVirus 2009 and I also see the results of BitDefender spam filtering in my email headers and in the addition of "[spam]" to the subject line of some emails, and I am also upset with this. One of the reasons I chose this product it that it specifically advertised that it does NOT include…
