BitDefender issue

A number of people reported severe problems with the bitdefender update scripts yesterday. Seemingly the processes were hanging and eating up CPU. Kevin Spicer found a good interim solution: vim /usr/lib/MailScanner/bitdefender-autoupdate Comment out the following two lines: LINE 190 system "$bitDCmd > $origFile "; LINE 253 system "$bitDCmd > $destFile "; You then need to kill any bitdefender update processes. Most of them are "bdc", so you can run: ps auxwww|grep bdc but I also found a few with "bitdefender" in the string. Thanks to Kevin for solving this! EDIT: This issue was resolved by the developers a few days later
