Key Features

• Antivirus
  The mission of the Antivirus module is to ensure detection and removal of all viruses in the wild. BitDefender 10 Free Edition Antivirus uses robust scan engines, certified by ICSA Labs, Virus Bulletin, Checkmark, CheckVir and TÜV.


• Improved Proactive detection
  B-HAVE (Behavioral Heuristic Analyzer in Virtual Environments) emulates a virtual computer-inside-a-computer where pieces of software are run in order to check for potential malware behavior. This BitDefender 10 Free Edition proprietary technology represents a new security layer that keeps the operating system safe from unknown viruses by detecting malicious pieces of code for which signatures have not been released yet.


• Spyware scanning and cleaning
  BitDefender 10 Free Edition can scan your system, or part of it, for known spyware threats. The scan uses a constantly updated spyware signature database. Besides, BitDefender 10 Free Edition has new privacy protection, the privacy guard monitors HTTP (web) and SMTP (mail) traffic flowing out of your computer for what might be personal information – like credit card numbers, SSN’s and other user-defined strings, like, for example, bits of passwords.


• Improved Deployment and use
  A setup wizard starts immediately after installation, helping users select the most appropriate update settings, a scanning schedule and providing a quick path to registering and activating the product.


• Improved User Experience
  BitDefender 10 Free Edition redesigned the user experience, placing emphasis on ease of use and clutter avoidance. As a result, many BitDefender 10 Free Edition v10 modules require significantly less user interaction, through judicious use of automation and machine learning.


• Hourly Updates
  Your copy of BitDefender 10 Free Edition will be updated 24 times a day over the Internet, directly or through a Proxy Server. The product is able to repair itself if necessary, by downloading the damaged or missing files from BitDefender 10 Free Edition servers. BitDefender 10 Free Edition license owners benefit from free virus definition updates and free product upgrades.


• NEW Rootkit Detection and Removal
  A new BitDefender 10 Free Edition module looks for rootkits (malicious programs designed to control victim computers, while staying hidden) and removes them on detection


• System Requirements:
  Pentium MMX 200 Mhz or higher processor
  Minimum 64MB of RAM Memory (128MB recommended)

Solid antivirus and antispyware solution

BitDefender 10 Free Edition is a solid antivirus and antispyware solution, offering two-year subscriptions for the price of one elsewhere; however, it could be faster, offer built-in help, and uninstall better.
