The Beta 2 of BitDefender Internet Security 10 is out today for download here (http://download.bitdefender.com/windows/desktop/internet_security/beta/bitdefender_isecurity_v10-BETA2.exe) (registration required). It fixed the bug I talked about, and there are a few other changes (http scanning, less memory usage, etc). I think that I might get it when it comes out. Is anyone else trying this beta?

Nope, they refused my application for $5.00 an hour to test, scope, and report on their bugs.

If they want me to run their (and that is ANYONE) BETA software - there better be a monthly check in the mail for my time to fight with software conflicts, intrusions that occur, and time to report their bugs.

BitDefender Beta 3 is out.
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://.<!-- D([&quot;mb&quot;,&quot;<br>\n- <a href\u003d\&quot;http://www.ebay.de\&quot; target\u003d\&quot;_blank\&quot; onclick\u003d\&quot;return top.js.OpenExtLink(window,event,this)\&quot;>www.ebay.de</a> failed to be displayed when HTTP Scanner was enabled.<br>\n- After an update process was performed, the update progress bar remained at 100% of the total status.<br>\n- Rarely, the antispyware module was disabled due to inconsistent behavior of the product.<br>\n<br>\nKnown issues:<br>\n- Stealth mode is currently not available.<br>\n- Rarely, ICS (internet Connection Sharing) might not work properly due to the BitDefender Firewall module (We recommend to disable and re-enable the firewall)<br>\n- The Block Traffic from the General tab button does not work<br>\n- The Firewall actions from sys tray do not work<br>\n- Load/Save Settings from General&gt;Settings do not work<br>\n- The Anti-rootkit module is not available yet.<br>\n- If “category-based analysis” is disabled, the “Use the list of blocked sites provided by BitDefender” option from Web control does not work<br>\n<br>\nPlease note that your bug reports will be acted upon only in the sense that the bugs will be confirmed, fixed and marked as such in the next release, although you may be asked for additional information.<br>\n<br>\nKind regards,<br>\nThe BitDefender Team<br>\n<a href\u003d\&quot;http://www.bitdefender.com\&quot; target\u003d\&quot;_blank\&quot; onclick\u003d\&quot;return top.js.OpenExtLink(window,event,this)\&quot;>www.bitdefender.com</a><br>\n\n</div>&quot;,0] ); D([&quot;ce&quot;]); //-->
- www.ebay.de (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

That would have been the best $5/hr. they could have ever spent rather than get alot of useless feedback and having to pay some guy $30/hr or more to sift through it:rolleyes:

Good point, Rainbow 32. Sometimes the private sector's lack of financial acumen and its layers of bureaucracy exceed even those of governments!
