NB: Windows XP SP2 & SP3 users need to have .NET Framework 2.0 or above previously installed in your PC to run any BitDefender 2011 Security product and the Patch by BOX 3.1. However Windows Vista & Windows 7 users need to have .NET Framework 3.5 Service Pack 1 or above previously installed in their PCs to run them.

In case you don't have it installed yet you can download it from:

BitDefender 2011 - Requirements and Procedures to be observed before installing:
1) BitDefender 2011 products require a medium to powerful PC to run smoothly. Therefore, the Minimal system requirements are the following:
Operating system: Microsoft Windows XP SP3 (SP2 for x64), Vista (SP1), Microsoft Windows 7
Available free hard disk space: 1 GB free space
CPU: 800MHz processor
Memory (RAM):
512 MB (Microsoft Windows XP)
1 GB (Microsoft Windows Vista and Microsoft Windows 7)
Software Requirements:
.Net Framework 2.0 or above
2) Choose the suitable BitDefender 2011 product which is compatible with your Operative System, i.e.: BitDefender 32 bit for 32 bit Operative Systems or BitDefender 64 bit for 64 bit Operative Systems.
3) Have the appropriate NET.Framework which is suitable for your Operative System installed in your PC before installing BitDefender 2011. This is required to run the patch by BOX 3.1. If you want to determine that the appropriate NET.Framework is already installed in your PC, Go to Control Panel => Add or remove programs => Check there which NET.Framework you have installed. After installing NET.Framework restart your PC.
4) You cannot have two antiviruses (AV) installed at the same time. So if you are going to install a BitDefender 2011 product you must uninstall the AV you currently have, including old BitDefender versions or any BitDefender 2011 which you may have installed and found it is not working due to the fact that you have applied a different registration procedure from the one described in this post (search for and delete any traces of BitDefender and Softwin in your HDD and in your Windows registry). It isn't enough to disable the current antivirus because there could be AV services running in the background which could impair the correct installation and future performance of the new BitDefender. After uninstalling the old AV, restart your PC.
5) Same happens with firewalls. You cannot have two firewalls running at the same time because one would conflict with the other. Therefore, Windows Firewall must be disabled. After disabling it, restart your PC or in case of BitDefender Internet Security or Total Security, let BitDefender do it for you (tick the corresponding box when installing it). If you are going to install BitDefender Antivirus 2011 after its installation, patching and first update, it is recommended to re-enable Windows Firewall and adjust its settings to allow BitDefender to go into the net to perform futures updates.
6) Uninstall any other third party software which may conflict with the future services to be rendered by BitDefender (firewall, antispyware, antispam, etc.). After uninstalling such software, restart your PC.
7) Windows Defender (Microsoft AntiSpyware) can be kept running.
8) In case of Windows Vista and Windows 7, disable User Account Control (UAC). After disabling UAC, restart your PC.
9) After having made the above adjustments but before installing the chosen BitDefender 2011 product, don't forget to create a restoration point which can be useful in case anything may go wrong with BitDefender installation and/or its future operation. Naturally that you must have the appropriate tool for restoring: the ERD Commander Boot CD version which has to be compatible with your Operative System. If you are running Windows XP SP2 or SP3 you may alternatively use Hiren's Boot CD 10.4 and then invoke ERD Commander from it. FYI Hiren's Boot CD 10.4 was the last version which included ERD Commander (not ERD Commander Explorer).
BitDefender 2011 - Installation and Patching Instructions:
Though the procedures are stated within the patch (click the "Read Me" button) and which you must read carefully and strictly follow before applying the patch, I have adapted and rephrased them for your easiest understanding as follows:
1. Install your chosen BitDefender 2011 product using preferably the installer downloaded from the appropriate BitDefender direct links indicated above.
After installation has finished DO NOT RESTART YOUR COMPUTER.
2. Download to your Desktop the Patch by BOX 3.1 from any of the above mentioned links.
3. Restart your computer but boot it into Safe Mode (F8) using an account with Administrator's rights
4. Once in Windows Safe Mode, open the file "Box_BD2011_3.1.rar" located in your Desktop and extract the Patch ("Box_BD2011.exe") to said place. Double click the Patch to run it and execute it by clicking the "Year 2045" button or, in case you have not disabled UAC, right click on "Box_BD2011.exe" and choose "Run as Administrator" and then proceed as indicated. When patching has been finished a small window will pop-up telling you that the patching was successful. It is not necessary to delete the Patch. Should the Patch may be detected as a virus/trojan, IT IS WORTH MENTIONING THAT THE PATCH 3.1 BY BOX IS SAFE AND CLEAN. Such possible circumstance is called "FALSE POSITIVE".
5. Now restart your PC in Windows Normal Mode.
6. Open Bitdefender GUI, click the "Registration" tab and in the "Registration Information" area check that your BitDefender 2011 product expires in about 13000 days.
7. Adjust your BitDefender 2011 product settings, update it and you are done. Afterwards and at your convenience, you may conduct a full scan of your computer but bear in mind that for a not newly formated PC the scanning may take a long time.
8. You may re-enable UAC if you so wish it.
9. If at a later stage you want to remove the effects of the Patch from your Bitdefender 2011 product, simply run again the Patch by BOX in Windows Normal Mode and click the "Uninstall" button. Said manoeuvre will convert the BitDefender 2011 product back to a 30-day trial version.
10. If for any reason you want to uninstall BitDefender, first you must eliminate the effects of the Patch. To that end, run the Patch in Windows Normal Mode and click the "Uninstall" button. When indicated by the Patch, restart the computer in Windows Normal Mode and try to update BitDefender and a window will pop-up advising you that BitDefender has reverted to Trial and now proceed to uninstall BitDefender. If you don't proceed as above, BitDefender will generate a bug report which nevertheless will not affect your PC at all.
NOTE A: If any BitDefender 2011 product is already installed and registered with a valid key or with a key that has expired or that it is shown as invalid and you want to patch it to have it registered again or for a longer period of time, you have to restart your computer in Windows Safe Mode (F8) and then run the Patch using an account with Administrator's rights and click the "Year 2045" button. Once patching has been finished you have to restart your PC in Windows Normal Mode and you are done.
NOTE B: When you have applied the Patch to BD Total Security, the Online Backup feature does not work because you don't have and/or cannot create an account at BitDefender website.
BitDefender Emergency Rescue CD:
BitDefender Rescue CD is capable to scan and disinfect all existing hard drives before your operating system starts.
You should use BitDefender Rescue CD any time your operating system is not working properly because of virus infections. That usually happens when you don't use properly your antivirus product or it is not adequately configured.
The update of the virus signatures is made automatically, without user intervention each time you start the BitDefender Rescue CD and there is an available Internet connection.
BitDefender Rescue CD is a BitDefender re-mastered Knoppix distribution, which integrates the latest BitDefender for Linux security solution into the GNU/Linux Knoppix Live CD, offering a desktop antivirus which can scan and disinfect existing hard drives (including Windows NTFS partitions). It doesn't require a key or registration to use it.
At the same time, BitDefender Rescue CD can be used to restore your valuable data when you cannot boot Windows. You can also save files to your pendrive with this CD. However when you use a pendrive it's advisable to use an empty one because there is a high chance that it may corrupt your existing files in the pendrive because the Rescue CD is based on a Linux distribution.
