r/BitDefender

even trying to open Google says bitdefender blocked it. discord, YouTube, everything is blocked

I'm experiencing sporadic/intermittent issues with Google while VPN'd into Atlanta. It's strange. I might go a week with no issues then, like this morning, could not access anything on google.com (except mail) unless I disconnected VPN, despite the connection location.

Anyone seeing this?

I got a message today morning that my credit card has been used at 2co.com for bitdefender. A charge of 269 AED has been levied on my card and the money is deducted. There was a second attempt too but thankfully I had a card control limit.

How do I claim this? I don’t have an order number or email or anything. As in, this was done by someone else.

Hi! Bitdefender keeps sending weird notification.

For example: Chrome wanted to make a connection with what looks like a tracker site thing (literally had "tracker" in the name). But bitdefender blocked it.

And for the other one: a very random site I don't even know wanted to commit a very horrible crime (phishing).

So, are there actually dangerous and I should hide in a bunker immediately.

Or it's just a glitch and there's nothing to be worried from.

Oh yeah I didn't actually go to these sites.

Hello! out of curiousity, what does this even mean?

(Feature: Online Threat Prevention We blocked this phishing page for your protection: [[some random website thing]] Phishing pages attempt to obtain sensitive information such as login credentials or credit card details by disguising as trustworthy entities. The stolen data can be then used for financial gain.)

pretty sure that i didn't go on sketchy links. so i just wanted to know if this is dangerous or just a glitch

there's also this thing too: Feature: Online Threat Prevention [[Chrome]] attempted to establish a connection relying on an expired certificate to [[another website but the word "tracker" is in the name]] We blocked the connection to keep your data safe since websites must renew their certificates with a certification authority to stay current, and outdated security certificates represent a risk.

How to fix this?

I just downloaded bitdefender because I heard it had a free version when I downloaded it I was offered a free trial and I accepted after I set everything up I went to make sure to unsubscribe from the trial so I wouldn’t get any payments out of nowhere.

But Thats when I realized they never asked for a payment device bitdefender actually gave me a free trail without trying to be sneaky and force a payment later like every other company on planet earth.

I low-key have so much respect for bitdefender as a company now and if I ever pay for a subscription to stay protected it’ll be with bitdefender

10/10 would recommend
