r/BitDefender

Is there a way to find out WHY a site triggers BitDefender?

Like a site I go to regularly is now trigger it all the time as suspicious.

Anyone else having trouble logging in this morning?

My vpn wasn't working, so went to login to central, account not found.

Now it found the account but I have no subscription. This doesn't feel like a ddos. Crashed dB? Hacked?

What does this mean? I’m an infected?

What does this mean? I didn’t install anything or clicked on any link it tried showing me, am I safe?

Session stealers?

Why can't this program detect session stealers still? It costs so much money if you buy it from them... I get it off Amazon $20 for a year but still. it doesn't detect the most popular session stealers going around the internet ruining lives more than anything Bitdefender actually catches.

This can’t be right can it?!

Excuse the terrible photos but I pulled the plug on the internet as soon as i saw them.

These are config files in my bit defender folder.

I’ve got a Romanian bank in my exceptions.http.xml file and I don’t set that.

Bitdefender reporting 90.3 GB for a single Windows Security Update (KB5089549)?

Hi everyone,

I just ran a vulnerability scan in Bitdefender Total Security and it's flagging Windows Update KB5089549 as a "High" risk. What caught my eye is the size: 90.3 GB for a security update.

Windows Update itself shows the update is pending a restart, but doesn't mention this massive size. Is this a known reporting bug in Bitdefender or should I be concerned about my system files?

Specs:

  • CPU: Intel i5-14600K
  • GPU: RTX 3070
  • OS: Windows 11 (Insiders/Dev build based on the version number in the screenshot)

Thanks for any insights!

Bitdefender wont update my windows defender update (EVEN THO ITS TELLING ME TO)

ISTG this has been happening for like 2 or 3 weeks. Ive been doing vulnerability scans every now and then (I sometimes pirate games), and this stupid thing pops up. When i click on update, it says "installing", and then when its done it says its finished successfully. But what pisses me off is that IT HASNT UPDATED IT. every time after the first time, i AGAIN, get this stupid pop up telling me to update this Microsoft defender update. can someone help me. I also btw reinstalled Bitdefender, and tried updating it myself in settings, but it says its up to date.

Enterprise edition updating hourly

Is this normal? I feel like every few hours its updating and takes like 50% of my cpu usage to update.. really annoying.
