Ok, thanks but just to clear up any potential confusion, is the one "Pinned" by Christian, in Jan 2013, in "Important Topics" on first window of this forum, current? http://forum.bitdefender.com/index.php?showforum=356 Both links point to identical files which may appear to differ by file name. Gonzales_uninstalltool.exe…

... perhaps it is left there in case you need to repair the software .... I have RarSFX0, RarSFX1 and RarSFX2 ... As far as I know (now), it is safe to delete the directory C:/Users/user/AppData/Local/Temp/RarSFX0. All works fine without it. I got rid of it and it's replicas I had. I think I did it with Windows (8) Disk…

Bump... Anyone? I think the RarSFX0 directory is created at installation time and perhaps it is left there in case you need to repair the software. I have RarSFX0, RarSFX1 and RarSFX2 probably because I reinstalled (not repaired!) the software a couple of times. The three directories are identical except for the content of…

The LOG bug is still here, any fix in near future? Do not loose any sleep waiting for that. I believe that problem has been there forever to more or less degree. I suspect the problem is triggered by other software (e.g., by the use of third party anti-malware, which Bitdefender warns against using simultaneously). I…

I have noticed this too but didn't think it was a major concern. This happens because when a signatures update is received, it's record replaces the entry from the previous signature update at its location in the list of events. If the interface is closed, e.g., after Exit from the tray icon, and restarted the update entry…

Your assumptions are correct only if the developers of antivirus ahead of time and creates superior products exceeds the capabilities of the commercial versions that have recently updated version. Every day there are tens of thousands of malware. Changes machinery and methods of infection. On the old and more than a year…

Yes. it has been said many times on the forum by those members who use the free version that there is no problem with the database and definitions being update regularly. I suspect the "being discontinued" rumor has come because the version has not been updated since (I believe) last November. Happy birthday/anniversary to…

N/M It is generating new corrupted files every time I rescan so not a BD issue. Time for a full reinstall. Thanks for the update. I hope your hardware (disk) has not gone bad.

I just got this: Bitdefender has updated its virus signatures. The update version is 7.57093. The signature number is 6305163. Updates may be received every hour!* Soon enough that will not be the latest update. ________________ *But this has no bearing on when or how Bitdefender releases updates, i.e., updates are not…

Thanks. I checked the logs, and I have update version 7.56834 (signature number 6102923). The last update before that (if I recall correctly from memory) was about 5-6 days prior, so I'm surprised it hasn't been updated in so long. Can anyone confirm whether they have a newer update or signature number. Also, how do I…

Thanks. My BitDefender version is "1.0.21.1099" and says it was "Last Updated: 9/16/2014." Is there a way to manually update it? I don't see anything on the suggested manual update page at http://bitdefender.com/site/view/Desktop-P...ts-Updates.html. As Rohugh wrote, you have the latest software version, which has remained…

... if I mouse over the bottom-right corner of the screen, then mouse pointer changes from the Diablo one to the standard Windows pointer. If I click in that area, I get pulled back to Windows and I see the BD window for a fraction of a second before it disappears ... I assume that this is a bug in BD. Is there anything I…

I am wanting to download the full version of Bitdefender Free for my XP laptop, but I cannot find the full download. ... There are installation kits for 32 bit (9.46 MB) and a 64 bit (9.96 MB) versions of Bitdefender Antivirus Free Edition. However, read the full post regarding them: Atlast I found the links for offline…

Ok, reported the link and they gave me the ticket 2014091015110001. Now what? I ll have to wait a month to get easyloads out of the list? I ll uninstall bitdefender, nevermind. In my experience, domains reported as false positives may be fixed within a day. There is probably a good reason why a web site ends up as a false…

Hello to everyone. I am using Bitdefender Antivirus Free Edition and I am facing a problem with Easybytez.com hoster. Whenever I try to download sth, the 60 sec counter goes ok but when I click the download button, bitdefender blocks the page. I clicked "take me there anyway" but it won't work and the page remains blocked…

From section 3, Product Interface, of Bitdefender® Antivirus Free Edition User's Guide* (page 4): Note You will be protected against malware threats even if you exit the program interface. __________________ You will find UserGuide.pdf in the same folder where you find the antivirus' executable files.

Every time my mother turns her Windows 8 Laptop on and logs in, Bitdefender starts its 'uninstall/repair installation' program. It sometimes starts on the taskbar, but when you click on the window Windows goes to that annoying gray screen/'Do you want to allow this program to make changes' pop-up. It also just happened in…

Repair didn't work so I reinstalled AV completely. It worked, problem solved. Good for you! I did both processes, repair and uninstall. For both I would get the message failed and I had to reboot. The processes would have to be resumed after rebooting and they both work properly.

I'm rebooting regularily every day. I haven't done any modificantions in my other security programs, Quick Sweeps disappeared with no reason. My logs look like that: I noticed you are not having Deep Sweeps either! It is as if you accidentally turned the Auto Scan switch OFF. When I expanded the Auto Scan panel I was…

... I have seen this reported on other Antivirus forums ... Very true! I had bad experience trying to scan secure connections with the antivirus I had before Bitdefender®. I also had problems with SSL one occasion when my system date/time was incorrect.

What it deep scan doesn't work as well? Log says "An On Demand scan has been stopped." Last quick sweep - 6/29/2014 (before that date there was a quick sweep every day). I get the message An On Demand scan has been stopped in my LOGS if I start a scan and then open Bitdefender's interface, click on the scan while it is in…

I found this: Click 'Start menu' -> 'Control Panel' -> 'Uninstall a Program' or 'Add/Remove Programs' and choose 'Uninstall' button if you see SafeSearch in the list. Internet Explorer: Open Internet Explorer, go ‘Tools‘ -> ”Manage Add-ons’ -> ‘Toolbars and Extensions’. Here, look for SafeSearch and click 'uninstall'. Now…

Why says Bitdefender Antivirus Free is not aggressive in technology Active Virus Control ?. Takes implemented, showing what it says. Something seems lost in translation. Bitdefender Antivirus Free Edition only lacks of user control to make it more aggressive, more permissive, or make any exceptions.

... ...Can't restore or delete files after i did a Full scan. ... ...the quarantined files already were marked,zipped or isolated. As far as I know Bitdefender Antivirus Free Edition cannot quarantine files within archive files (compressed file systems). The quarantine mechanism simply adds the extension .######.gzquar to…

Bitdefender shows my system is not protected. The virus shield do not want to switch on There may be more than one reason for this. Usually Bitdefender Antivirus Free Edition would give a message when there is a problem. Some I can recall quickly are: * You need to register your Bitdefender® installation to continue using…

After finally convincing my friends to let me try running IE on their computer, I tried to login via the bit defender application only to get an error saying that Java needed to be enabled. I went over all settings, uninstalled then re-installed java, checked the settings again, and tried enabling it through command prompt…
