Port Scan And Autopilot Issues
Hi folks, I have BD Internet Security 2016 on Windows 7 Home Premium, and am trying to resolve a problem with repeated, frequent (!!) "Port Scan Detected" notifications. I do a lot of piece-work on my PC, and often play DVD and Blu-ray discs while I'm at it. I have turned off the autoscan of optical discs in BDIS, because…

Is 2016 - How To Configure Update Settings?
I've just installed IS 2016 (I've been using Bitdefender IS for several years), and I can't find any way to configure update settings in this version. Has this been removed, or did I miss it? My reason for asking is that with both IS 2014 and IS 2015, there were instances where Bitdefender would launch into an automatic…

Custom Settings Turn Autopilot Off; Bd Complains
Is there a happy medium in this issue? Varying the settings turns Autopilot off, but BD goes on complaining about the fact. Can we please either have a customised Autopilot that BD will accept, or have the option to kill the nagging? In my case, I have an optical drive in my desktop PC, which I only ever use to play retail…

Bitdefender Is 2015 Goes Into Endless Update Loop, Stalls Other Apps
I'm running the full retail version of BD Internet Security 2015 on Windows 7 x64.

A Bad Update On January 1?
I'm trying to troubleshoot a problem: Did anyone else have a problem with a Bitdefender update yesterday? About 24 hours ago, my installation of BD IS 2015 began polling for an update, and ended up locking up my system. CPU utilisation went to 100%, and after 2 hours showed no sign of coming down again. The BD desktop…

Product downgrade
How can I downgrade to a previous version? I've recently updated my installation to the 2015 product, and I really don't like it at all. It's too intrusive, and if i drop it below its own default settiings, it just nags me and flings alerts about the settings needing to be "fixed". (Why even have the settings available if…

Recommended Response To Port Scans?
I have BIS 2013 on my PC, to protect my ADSL2+ connection, and I seem to be getting frequent port scans. At least, I'm getting frequent reports from BD that a port scan has been detected and blocked. Am I adequately protected, or is there something more I need to do? I understand I can create a rule denying the IP address…

Bitdefender Is 2103 Repeatedly Crashes Firefox 14
New to Bitdefender, have bought and installed IS 2013, and it crashes Firefox repeatedly. I've spent hours on troubleshooting, reinstalling Firefox and creating new profiles, running in protected mode and adding back features one at a time, and the only time it crashes is when Bitdefender is running. I'm really, really…
