Good work! Glad we could help :-)
BTW, you don't have to worry even if BitDefender will not delete the
infected file automatically (but its better if it will). As long as the
Virus Shield of BitDefender is loaded (started and running in Windows), you
are safe because known virus to its database will block it from doing any
harm. However, the alert will not stop so you need to keep that setting -
to prompt you for action or automatically delete.
