AGAIN, BitDefender is as good as to what it knows about. It is still a "reactionary" software - it has to know about the virus, worm, etc first - before it can defend you. Now, if everyone had a second permanent backup untouchable copy (read only) of all the files on your computer, then a "proactive" copy of antivirus software can be created. Meaning the software can compare your "read only" copy to your "live" copy of your files and flag and/or replace the "bad" file with your read-only "good" file. BUT, that means everyone would have to have a second hard drive (or equivalent) to "mirror" ALL your GOOD files - BUT - ONLY - if you know the files are good in the first place - another catch 22. And, yes, I know I sound like Mr. Know-it-all, however, I was in the IT / Computer field for 24 years before getting into Pianos.
