BitDefender Free Edition uses the same ICSA Labs certified scanning engines found in other BitDefender products, allowing you to enjoy basic virus protection for no cost at all.

This free antivirus software download is an on-demand virus scanner, which is best used in a system recovery or forensics role. If you are on an "always-on" Internet connection, we strongly advise you to consider using a more complex antivirus solution.

Features:

Virus Scanning & Removal
On-demand scanning - powerful scan engines ensure detection and removal of all viruses in the wild every time you need it.

Scheduled Scanning
The Scheduler lets you plan ahead, and schedule full system/drive scans in the off hours, when you won't be using your computer.

Immediate Scanning
With just a simple right-click, you can check your files and folders.

Quarantine
By isolating the infected files in quarantine, the risk of getting infected diminishes. You also have the possibility to send these files for further analysis to BitDefender Labs.

Reports
When launching a scan you may choose to create a report file where you can see statistics about the scan process.
