Is this problem only in the Enterprise WD or are Home users affected as well? Jimmy
I am on the other forum too and have read CS's posts about her AV tests there and here too. I know she is very highly respected, knows her stuff...
+1 I agree with you. I suppose anything is possible but I don't see how a malware could bypass or turn off Defender when I am using my Standard...
I apologize for my ignorance. I really do wish MS were not so ambiguous about what exactly Defender does and what exactly Defender will/will not...
I use both in Chrome and any other chromium browser. I use the MBAM Browser Guard in Firefox and Edge. Neither extension has really ever picked up...
If you don't have it already installed try adding the MS Defender extension from the Chrome store in Vivaldi. The extension will link Vivaldi to...
Well, that was not the first time I have had problems with Edge. Most of the time Edge works ok but I never have any trouble with Chrome. For all...
Another update here, last week I had some problems with Edge, it was running slow, having problems with printing and the strangest thing was there...
I should add here that I switched to Windows 11 last weekend, it removed BD Free and I am now using the built-in MS Windows Security. I plan to...
I updated mine just now, thanks for the tip. Jimmy
Yes BD is doing fine. It is super light on my system, I hardly even notice it. Boot time is faster than it was with WD and BD is already up and...
Here is an update to my small part of this thread... I think I solved my Bitdefender mystery. I thought about the problem over the weekend and...
I don't know what happened with BD on my daily driver laptop. I wanted to do a test, I have another older laptop that still has BD Free on it. I...
I spoke too soon again. I went back online just a few minutes ago and now BD is throwing me this new warning. Clicking the "Protect Yourself"...
Edited, thanks
I reinstalled BD today and I think I found the problem. In the Settings, under the Advanced tab there is a function to "see cyber threat reports"....
No, not that I know of. I do have a Facebook account but I don't use it or post much in there now. I got it a long time ago to keep up with my...
Tried it again, no joy. The same Facebook warning came back. I checked BD settings and the one notification setting had turned back on, I know for...
Well I downloaded and updated BD again and turned off the Special Offers and Recommendations in settings. No sooner than I opened Chrome I got the...
Thanks Pat for pointing this out, I had the one setting turned off, it was for suggestions I believe. The other one was for notifications or...
I spoke too soon. Yesterday BD Free sent me a warning about a Facebook data leak that is over a month old. It had a link in the notification to...
I took xxJackxx' advice on this one. I experimented with different browsers and different AV's over the last few months and found that Chrome and...
It works very well for me. Very strong phishing and browser protection and is super light on resources. I think BD works much better than WD, I...
I tried the new BD Free myself, downloaded it on Friday, decided Saturday that I did not like it and had to use a combination of Revo and HiBit...
We just hit 40, xxJackxx. I downloaded FF again just two days ago after reading a few articles about MV3. I am trying to get out from under...
