    Notes on Beta 3


    Improvements:
    - Category based analysis has been added in the Parental Control module (based on heuristic filters, the category based analysis automatically classifying web pages based on content and other cues)
    - When the user logs on a network for the first time since BitDefender has been installed, the BitDefender Firewall detects it and launches the BitDefender Firewall Wizard. It allows the user to properly configure the BitDefender Firewall for that specific network. Each time the user logs on a known network, the predefined profile is automatically applied.
    - The number of BitDefender processes has been reduced from 8 to 6.

    Bug fixes:
    - Contextual scan does not work.
    - The Default List from the Parental Control module does not work.
    - Moving or copying files to the quarantine folder does not work
    - When more than 4 scanning tasks run in the same time, BitDefender On-demand Scanner crashes.
    - The Web Control module failed to apply rules for URLs including http://.
    - www.ebay.de failed to be displayed when HTTP Scanner was enabled.
    - After an update process was performed, the update progress bar remained at 100% of the total status.
    - Rarely, the antispyware module was disabled due to inconsistent behavior of the product.

    Known issues:
    - Stealth mode is currently not available.
    - Rarely, ICS (internet Connection Sharing) might not work properly due to the BitDefender Firewall module (We recommend to disable and re-enable the firewall)
    - The Block Traffic from the General tab button does not work
    - The Firewall actions from sys tray do not work
    - Load/Save Settings from General>Settings do not work
    - The Anti-rootkit module is not available yet.
    - If “category-based analysis” is disabled, the “Use the list of blocked sites provided by BitDefender” option from Web control does not work

    well, I'm a little bit dissapointed by their beta testing... from beta 1 to beta 4 they added the HTTP scanner and improved some little things.
    The anti-rootkit module is not available yet, the stealth mode neither and Sometimes the BitDefender process \"bdss.exe\" uses 99% of the system\'s CPU. (For me it happened severela times and it's not quite funny. :( )

    Perhaps in beta 15 they'll finally add/improve some more.
    I"m not telling you that beta1 was more like an alpha version, definetly not a beta.

    Hi

    I am very interested in bitdefender 10 I looked at some of the screenshots and they looked great. i have always liked the self repair and think all av's should have it. can some one show me a screenshot of there task manager showing all the BD processes? on bd 10 beta

    btw do bitdefenders firewall alerts still come with like 10 options and are very confusing?
