[QUOTE="SeriousHoax, post: 1033281, member: 78686"] Maybe there was a bug on your installation when you tested. It's fine for me. The system tray icon comes with a delay and when malware is executed before the system tray icon showed up, it showed that the file is used by another process which in this case was Bitdefender who was removing the malware. Maybe this behavior is part of Bitdefender's Endpoint products where there might be a policy to hide the agent from systems. But anyway, protection is not compromised as I tested but worth reporting to the Bitdefender support. Bitdefender paid versions now have an option part of real-time protection called "Scan process memory". Maybe you should check again since you said you tested a few months ago. Besides, as I said it's possible that it would have reacted if the process in memory was performing malicious activity. I know about this. Marcos gave an explanation of why ESET detect this file which I forgot. I'll have to check. High memory usage is common for Bitdefender which has been discussed in the forum many times. It comes down after a few days of usage. It's not a major issue as long as it's not causing issue with other apps. I also don't mind it using high CPU while removing malware. Yeah, it's malware removal process is quite slow, similar to Norton. For fast yet very effective removal process, you'll have to look at Avast. [/QUOTE]
