Yes, the firewall could really use an usability overhaul: - A "real" popup window in paranoid mode with the possibility to choose "allow once" / "deny once" / "always allow" / "always deny" for an application (or with a "remember this decision" checkbox as suggested by the original poster) --> this is pretty much standard…

Exactly. This is not a respectful way to treat paying customers. I will wait for the Bitdefender 2015 Version, and if by then they still have not implemented a "Never show this reminder again" checkbox (or a similar configuration option), I will switch to another antivirus. Zebman pretty much said it all: This is a pretty…

On installing you either have to link with Google, Facebook, or create yet another account with Bitdefender. I DON'T WANT TO DO ANY OF THOSE THINGS!!!! What is it with software companies trying to insidiously worm their way into every aspect of your computer life? MIND YOUR OWN BLOODY BUSINESS!!!!!! ...and If you don't…

Can anyone of the support staff please comment on this issue? Is there any way whatsoever to turn this popup off (regisry / INI hack or similar)? If not, are there any plans to add a "Do not show this notification again" checkbox? To put it bluntly: I will not be coerced into submission. You should not consistently nag…

Hmm, as it seems to me, the most recent build of BD (v17.20) now does disable the wallet startup programs when the wallet feature has been turned off. New behaviour: If I turn wallet on, pwdmanui.exe is put in the list of autostart programs (checked with CCleaner) If I turn wallet off, pwdmanui.exe vanishes from the…

Very well said. But I still hope that maybe once in a while the mighty kings of Bitdefender could come off their high horses and show an interest in the modest suggestions that are put forward by some lowly "not-quite-so-sheepish" customers

But why are this entries executed if wallet is switched off/ not used? I completely agree. The two wallet startup programs (bdapppassmgr.exe and pmbxag.exe) should NOT be running if the wallet feature is disabled. This should be easy to fix, come on guys

Yeah, I used CCleaner as well to disable the Wallet background services from loading at startup. Worked like a charm. But my point is that a clean, well-written piece of software should be considerate enough to take care of that automatically . It has something to do with a little bit of respect for a user's decision not…

Well, how hard can it be to keep the version list up to date ... They wouldn't even need a highly paid virus research professional to do that, any intern could be used to look up the current versions on the manufacturer's websites and update the list once a week or so. Heheh, even the janitor could do that in a coffee…

Please move the bdlog.txt file and all the other files in C:\ that are put there by Bitdefender to Bitdefender's own folder. It is very inconsiderate to put files in the main root directory of the system hard disk. It's just bad style. It is evil. Imagine every program did that - the root directory would be a complete…

Please please do move those files from C:\ to another folder in the next Bitdefender version. It is really annoying to have these files in C:\ when you have set the Explorer to also show hidden files by default. Thank you so much spacemarine

2. There are now 4 background processes running where in 2013 there was only bdagent.exe. Now there is bdagent, pmbxag, pwdmanui, and bdapppassmgr. I do not use any services other than AV, I would like to stop those unused services especially since they are turned off in the program options. I do not trust services…
