IIRC Those lines were commented out a while ago when a faulty plugin
from bitdefender caused the commented command to stop working and never
return.  Commenting those lines out allowed the updates to start working
again.  I suspect (haven't actually looked) that the script doesn't
clean up after itself so the temporary files it creates would still have
been present on the systems of users who commented those lines after
experiencing problems.  However... For any users who installed
bitdefender when those lines were already commented the temporary files
would not already be in existance, thus causing countViruses($file) to
fail.  Plausible?

In any event the problem with bitdefender that made the comments
necessary has now been fixed so the lines should probably be
uncommented.
