After looking into this a bit more, I did find the follow text at their press center (http://www.bitdefender.com/bd/site/presscenter.php?menu_id=25&n_id=91): "We will continue to provide antivirus freeware, as long as there is a public need for such. We believe quality antivirus should be available to one and all, as this is the only way we know of to alleviate the virus menace and reduce the impact of future virus incidents on the network at large." declared Mircea Mitu, BitDefender Business Line Manager. So maybe it is free to be used in a commercial environment, as well as for home use.
