Hi Folks,
Back again with loadsa silly questions. today i was nosing through my security setting(Bit defender 2009) and spotted a whitelist. Imo, this is supposed to be a list of all friendly's that may come and go thru my firewall. In my whitelist there is a truck load of friendly's that i certainly would not allow in there.
My question is "do security systems come pre-loaded with stuff the makers deem to be trustworthy?.If they don't then i need to find out how they got there and is the list growing. I have done deep scans with the Bit defender and also Malwarebytes/anti malware and there doesnt seem to be anything suspicious going on. Am i being worried over nothing?
Zzzzz
