Hi,

When I saw the clamav-autoupdate logging to Syslog I wanted logging for 
BitDefender to Syslog as well. So I made a simple patch for the orginal 
bitdefender-autoupdate script which logs trough Syslog.

Please try it and let me know if it works (or not). It's working on my 
servers quite nicely.

Regards,
Remy.
