Bdproductdata.exe Missing
I have recently installed AntiVirus Plus 2015 on several machines, some with v.18 & others with v.19. In the process of fine-tuning & cleanup on these new Windows 7 installations, I found a scheduled task, created by the BDAV install process, that wants to run bdproductdata.exe. The task is set to run at system startup,…

"ask Every Time" Doesn't Ask
BDAV 2013 introduced "ask every time" to scan usb, cd/dvd, or network drives under AV settings/exclusions. Nice feature, but it doesn't work. Starts scanning as soon as device is recognized. "Disable" works, but not "ask every time".

Excessive Installation Time
BDAV2013 takes significantly longer to install than BDAV2012. My system: IBM Netvista 8305, P4 3.06gb cpu, 1gb ram, Windows XP Pro w/sp3. Using a spare, clean, 40g harddrive, I restored a "starter" image (image was previously created from a 'clean' install of Windows). This image contains only the basics (sp3, windows…

Bdav2012 & Zone Alarm (free Firewall)
As per DanyDan in this thread (http://forum.bitdefender.com/index.php?showtopic=28307) BD Antivirus 2012 & Zone Alarm firewall can coexist. But the BD installer forces me to uninstall ZA first. Yes, I can (and did) reinstall ZA after the BDAV install was done. But then ZA has to re-learn all of its "allows" & "blocks". If…

Bdav2012 & Server2003
I have a machine running Windows Server 2003 that has been running BDAV 2009 successfully for about 2 years. Are there any compatibility issues or any reason not to upgrade to BDAV 2012? (It's not actually my machine, but one I provide support for. If it was my own, I'd just go ahead & do it) Thanks, Chris

Need New Key For Bd Antivirus 2008
My BDAV 2008 key expired (it did not auto-renew as I had expected it would). How do I buy a new one? I do not want to upgrade to 2010 at this time. My 2008 key was 3 cpu/2 yrs. I wish to resolve this issue today. Thanks.
