Also BitDefender 7.2 Free dosn't offer real-time resident protection.

That links doesn't show a review. It only says "Hé, I found 4 free av's".

REVIEW:
1] To look over, study, or examine again.
2] To consider retrospectively; look back on.
3] To examine with an eye to criticism or correction: reviewed the research findings.
4] To write or give a critical report on (a new work or performance, for example).
5] Law. To reexamine (an action or determination) judicially, especially in a higher court, in order to correct possible errors.
6] To subject to a formal inspection, especially a military inspection.

Not to mention that the article is almost a year old.

So, for a January 2004 issue, it was probably on the shelves in December 2003 and written in November 2003, well over a year ago. Apart from the fact that there is no review.
