Full Version: Tray Icon Alert, But Nothing To Fix. (bd Internet Sec'y 2009)

This has happened to me a couple of times recently.


Sorry, French version, but in any case, it should be clear:
the tray icon shows an alert, the flyover says "one or more critical problems affect your system", but the GUI identifies no current threat or issue.

It appears to "fix itself", maybe after a while or a reboot, but still has me worried.
How is it possible? Am I missing something?

G'Day Hub,

In the "Security Protected" (Securite Protege) section there is a 'Malware' scanner in the "Local Security" function (in the English it's the 2nd item line) which scans regularly and if it has not performed this scan, it shows as a /!\ suggested error which it is not. (as will some of the others if the optional task has not been performed or is not set)

So you will need to click on the Fix All and it should bring up the options or settings that need to be fixed !

As we perform regular scans, we have un-checked this item as it is a nuisance, we think, and is not necessary as long as you perform regular system scans and deep scans. Deep scan will clear the check mark to be a green tick and OK.

As part of the installation, you should have allowed the initial scans to take place, and then un-check the malware if you wanted to.
Most parameters are optional - however take care that you do not disable the wrong options and leave the BD useless.

Thanks, I'll look deeper into that tab if I see this happening again.
But how do you explain in that case, that the TAB itself shows "protected" in green, thereby suggesting that there is nothing noteworthy for me to look at inside the tab ?
