I just discovered something that seems to me quite odd. I set Protection Level to Report to have full control on what's trying to connect to…

Warning: Sdra64.exe
In a few last days my PC was infected twice with sdra64.exe and got no protection from BDIS 2009. Infections occured while browsing some internet sites, and there was no response of BDIS. I had to clean my system manually with emergency boot DVD, because there's no way to delete sdra64.exe from /system32 directory. the…
