It also packs-in features such as real-time shield, active virus control, anti-rootkit, HTTP scanning, and intrusion detection system. B-Have, a new technology based on behavioral analysis, helps to reduce the dependency on virus signature. Bitdefender Antivirus Free also comes with smart scan technology which skips files that have been scanned in the past.

To View quarantined files, click the logs button that appears when you click on the Bitdefender icon in the tray and then click Quarantined Files button.
