Hi Bill,

When I used the search engine at mail-archive.com to look for "BitDefender"
a couple days ago, it only returned 3 hits - none of them what I was looking
for.  Now when I search for the exact same text, it returns 45 hits.  Go
figure.

As to your comments about my config having extraneous settings (/Files),
I'll agree - but for a different reason.  The /Files is used to specify the
PATH, not the type of files to scan.  After reviewing
http://www.bitdefender.com/support/files/bdc.chm I've concluded that /Files
is already set by default and thus unnecessary.

As far as missing some important settings, I'll disagree completely.  The
above link shows that /r is to specifically scan Archives, the /i is to
specifically scan Mail (whatever that means).  I believe since I'm using
/All that /r and /i would be redundant.  I'm not sure why you would want to
suppress warnings with /W?  I took that to mean suspicious files, which I do
want to be warned about.  The /alev= and /flev= default to infinity so
shouldn't need to be specified at all.

After adjustment my SCANFILE line now reads:
C:\PROGRA~1\COMMON~1\Softwin\BITDEF~1\BDC.Exe /All /Log=report.txt /NoClean
/Noc
