Bitdefender FakeAlert.5 Aftermath

With PC totally destroyed and a mob of raging red angry customer, should Bitdefender pay for this critical mistake? After all, the damage done is probably far worse than any virus we seen (Other than information leakage which leads to other things).

See some angry users from Bullguard:

and even a Facebook group to discuss about a possible law suite:

and lets not forget the origin of the issue at Bitdefender:

Lets sit back and see how this unroll. Perhaps we are looking at a first customer-sue-antivirus-company-and-win case.
