Happy Birthday to you, Belgamin! I am in the same boat as you, some topics in Wilders and other security forums are a lot less relevant for me...
I have noticed the timer too, first saw it yesterday. I use Vivaldi with the built in ad and tracker blocker set to "block all ads and trackers"...
I got the update today as well, no problems with it here. I had already disabled the Copilot Preview with a registry edit. I also disabled the...
The mcpr.exe removal tool from the McAfee website will also remove it. You have to hunt for it on the website, it's about halfway down the home...
I use Chromium in Mint 21.1 Cinnamon. It works fine with my bank and all other financial transactions. All of the info on each site is there along...
Great, thanks for letting me know about that. Mint is great so far but right now I will keep Windows around too. If I can learn Linux really well...
Hello all, I made the switch to Mint Cinnamon two weeks ago, it is very new to me but so far I still like it very much and have not had much...
Yep I am the newest new guy with Linux I guess. The more I use it the better I like it. I am getting to know the OS and trying to learn what I can...
I am new to Linux myself. I only started with it about a week ago and still have a lot to learn. I am on Mint Cinnamon. I tried Ubuntu but just...
BD can be like an overprotective helicopter parent sometimes. It wants you to ask permission to make changes or really do anything outside the...
BD is like that. You have to run it as admin to make changes, like restoring that file or deleting old update notifications and warning...
It is here, in the Settings menu. You can turn off or on the notifications and recommendations and not see any special offers from BD. I left mine...
BD Free does not have the ransomware remediation function that is part of paid BD versions. That is what they are talking about in the magazine...
That is the first I have seen of the something new from Avast. I don't know much about Norton but I wonder if this is the Avast version of Norton...
Well I searched the FF and Edge Chrome extensions before I wrote that, and I did not see it anywhere. I will admit I did not spend any great...
I think you are right, Kaspersky will not allow other security apps to run at the same time. As far as I know Kaspersky does have its own...
I only saw the BD warning about a compromised site/data leak one time, that was when I went on Facebook the very first time after installing BD...
Bitdefender Antivirus Free has very strong protection and uses the same engine and core components as the paid Bitdefender AV's without the extra...
Edit: I also use Flagfox, it is a FF extension that puts a small icon of the flag of the country where the server for the website I am on is...
I have tried it a couple of times. It looks strange, the GUI is full of cartoon characters, but that has nothing to do with how the AV works I...
Not freezing here either. I am on Windows 11 22H2 with Ublock and BD Free. Fingers crossed. Jimmy
Sure, from left to right the first one is Ublock Origin. The next one with the green check mark is Bitdefender Trafficlight, I use it with...
I don't think it's that bad. The menu hamburger icon is right next to it and I use the "Classic Blue" theme so they both show up white against a...
There are a few threads on the other security forum that say MS has issued a fix for the problem, it was related to a problem with Defender...
Thanks Jack. My laptop is OK today but I am going to use a different AV now. Jimmy
