Mobile Security seems to think there's an unverifiable app on my phone?
In the last few weeks, Mobile Security on my Pixel 3a has been regularly throwing up overnight a notification that there is a new app installed that cannot be verified and that a scan is required. The weird thing is, no new app has been installed. Of course I worried that there was some malware that had made its way in,…

Stealth Mode can silently auto-enable in a home LAN
This is a public service announcement since I solved the problem. Stealth Mode can silently auto-enable on your home network if you change a Windows PC from ethernet to wifi. We had a Windows machine within our home network that had to be physically moved. As a result we had to change from an ethernet connection to wifi.…

Autofill of credit card expiry date
So I used the credit card autofill feature of Password Manager for the first time and got a mistake when it filled in the card's expiry date. Most credit card entry forms require the card expiry year as only the last two digits of the year. But Password Manager requires the date be entered as four digits. Then it…

Wallet cannot edit or add new entries
In recent days, I can no longer edit wallet entries, nor add new items. This is happening from both browser add-in and in the Bitdefender dashboard, so it is not a browser problem. Yes, I am using the right wallet password. The wallet still correctly auto-fills login fields, and I can see exisiting entries. Is this a new…

VPN does not hide locale, system timezone, etc
Feature Request. Not a killing problem for me, but I noticed the VPN product, which seems to do a good job with things like WebRTC, does NOT spoof your locale, language, time format or timezone. These are all obtainable via javascript requests from the remote end. So that's information which could be the start of…

ERR_CONTENT_DECODING_FAILED
Trying to login to ebay. It worked fine a month ago. Now it doesn't. The error on Chrome is ERR_CONTENT_DECODING_FAILED. Firefox just fails with a blank page. We can login with two of our computers, which proves the account is not the problem. But with the other two we get this error. The two computers with the problem do…

Do Not Replace Valid Certificates With Untrusted Bitdefender Ca
If Scan SSL is turned on, but BitDefender is unable to scan the stream, then it replaces the site's certificate with Untrusted BitDefender CA, even if the site's certificate is 100% valid. Do I have that right? If so, it's an enormous problem. In fact, it's an outright design flaw. Chrome and Firefox now check those…
