Hello all,
I have been trying BitDefender Antivirus 2012 Plus for a couple of days now.
I don't like the way it handles false positives, since when it detects a threat, takes action immediately. You cannot confirm nor undo this action. Only can choose which action will it be (delete, quarantine, deny access).
What I currently do is:
1. BD detects threat (on something I know is false positive) and locks the file (I set it to "deny access")
2. I check which file was locked, and add it to the Exceptions list.
3. Then I can use the file again.
Sounds easy, but its a lot of clicking around to do *everytime* it picks something that is clean.
I am even coinsidering changing to another AV for this.
Any suggestions? any features in BD that I am missing?
Thanks
BitDefender & false positives?
