The problem was solved yesterday, the ActiveX control was updated. In order to apply the update, a user has to access the scan online webpage (on bitdefender.com or partner sites) and allow the update. Btw... it would have been really nice not to expose users to this vulnerability and let us know prior to making it public. - -- Sami POTIRCA BitDefender Linux Project Manager - ------------------------------------- SOFTWIN Data Security Division - ------------------------------------- e-mail: oconstantin () bitdefender com phone: +(4021) 233 18 52; 233 07 80 fax: (+4021) 233.07.63 Bucharest, ROMANIA http://www.bitdefender.com http://www.softwin.ro - ------------------------------------- secure your every bit - -------------------------------------
