threat by trojan.JS.Iframe.BKD on MacBookPro

Just don't open. It cannot harm your Mac. Bit Defender is rubbish and gives false information. There are simply no viruses for Mac. Uninstall Bit Defender.

Does beg the question as to why Bitdefender could be bought from the Apple store.

True, there are a few available, but I suppose if they are doing nothing malicious then they are no more harmful than Facebook. And no more useful. 🙂

What should I do, now, so?

Remove the zip file from the computer by throwing it to the trash?

Yes.

Anything bought from apple should give the details of how to uninstall it. Check the App itself.

This is Bitdefender's instructions. But beware, they made the problem in the first place. If it continues, check out Malwarebytes.

Then follow the suggestions for Malwarebytes.

Although all "anti-virus" software is useless, including "BitDefender," there was a recent attack on the iTunes App Store in China and some malicious apps passed the screening process. Have you downloaded any apps from there recently, or from any source outside the App Store?

Hopefully it is not paranoia. I think you should disregard completely the comment by Linc Davis not to use Malware bytes.

Is it paranoia or not?

If by "paranoia" you mean "unfounded fear," then yes, that's what it is. Paranoia, in that sense, is dangerous, because it may lead you to take actions that make you less secure, rather than more secure. Installing useless software such BitDefender, MacKeeper, and Malwarebytes is one such action. Don't do it. Your computer is safe and it will stay that way as long as you don't allow yourself to be duped by Internet criminals. That's what happened when you downloaded MacKeeper. Just remain calm and don't install any software without carefully researching it first. App Store products can generally be considered to be free from malware.
