9.7. Privacy Control Alerts
Privacy Control provides advanced users with some extra features to protect their
privacy. You will be prompted for action through specific alert windows if you choose
to enable any of these components:
Registry Control - asks for your permission whenever a program tries to modify
a registry entry in order to be executed at Windows start-up.
Cookie Control - asks for your permission whenever a new website tries to set a
cookie.
Script Control - asks for your permission whenever a website tries to activate a
script or other active content.
9.7.1. Registry Alerts
If you enable Registry Control, you will be prompted for permission whenever a new
program tries to modify a registry entry in order to be executed at Windows start-up.
You can see the program that is trying to modify Windows Registry.
Note
BitDefender will usually alert you when you install new programs that need to run
after the next startup of your computer. In most cases, these programs are legitimate
and can be trusted.
If you do not recognize the program and if it seems suspicious, click Block to prevent
it from modifying Windows Registry. Otherwise, click Allow to permit the
modification.
Based on your answer, a rule is created and listed in the rules table. The same action
is applied whenever this program tries to modify a registry entry.
For more information, please refer to Registry Control (p. 119).
9.7.2. Script Alerts
If you enable Script Control, you will be prompted for permission whenever a new
web site tries to run a script or other active content.
You can see the name of the resource.
Click Yes or No and a rule will be created, applied and listed in the rules table. The
same action will be applied automatically whenever the respective site tries to run
active content.
Note
Some web pages may not be properly displayed if you block active content.
