Automatic Update<br />
Automatic update ensures that the newest BitDefender product and signature<br />
files are downloaded and installed automatically, on a regular basis. Updates<br />
are performed by default every hour.<br />
Vulnerability Scan<br />
Automatic Vulnerability Scan alerts you about and helps you fix vulnerabilities<br />
in your system that might affect its security. Such vulnerabilities include<br />
outdated software, weak passwords to user accounts or missing Windows<br />
updates.<br />
Antiphishing<br />
Antiphishing detects and alerts you in real-time if a web page is set up to steal<br />
personal information.<br />
Search Advisor<br />
Search Advisor scans the links in your search results and informs you which of<br />
them are safe and which are not.<br />
Identity Control<br />
Identity Control helps you prevent your personal data from being sent out on<br />
the Internet without your consent. It blocks any instant messages, e-mail<br />
messages or web forms transmitting data you defined as being private to<br />
unauthorized recipients (addresses).<br />
Chat Encryption<br />
Chat Encryption secures your conversations via Yahoo! Messenger and Windows<br />
Live Messenger provided that your IM contacts use a compatible BitDefender<br />
product and IM software.<br />
The status of some of these settings may be monitored by the BitDefender issue<br />
tracking system. If you disable a monitored setting, BitDefender will indicate this<br />
as an issue that you need to fix.<br />
If you do not want a monitored setting that you disabled to be shown as an issue,<br />
you must configure the tracking system accordingly. You can do that either in<br />
Intermediate View or in Expert View. For detailed information, please refer to<br />
“Configuring Status Alerts” (p. 37).<br />
11.2. Alerts Settings<br />
In this area, you can turn off the BitDefender pop-ups and alerts. BitDefender uses<br />
alerts to prompt you for action and pop-ups to inform you about actions it has taken<br />
automatically or about other events. To turn on or off a category of alerts, use the<br />
corresponding switch.<br />
Important<br />
Most of these alerts and pop-ups should be kept turned on in order to avoid potential<br />
problems.<br />
