Rating: - Still skeptical? Download the free trial and see for yourself.
This is a great product! It scans my computer very fast (about 20 minutes as opposed to Norton's hour-long scans). It's very convenient that you can download the free 30-day trial on their website so you can decide for yourself if it's an improvement over what you currently have for internet protection.

The main advantage to having the suite as opposed to multiple individual internet security items (antivirus, antispyware, firewall, etc) is that the individual components do not conflict ... Read More

Rating: - Great Product, Bogs Down PC A Little
When I bought this about 6 months ago, I was trying to find something to replace my CA Internet Security because I was unhappy with its performance.

This product is great when it comes to protecting my computer. It found viruses that my old software NEVER did. It has blocked multiple attempts on my PC, and I have had minimal problems with it.

My biggest complaint is that it seems to slow my PC down a bit. However not as bad as others I have used (i.e. Panda, Norton, MacAfee - ... Read More

Rating: - Good product overall, but I had minor issues.
First of all, let me say that I really think this is a good product. The interface is clean, its antivirus is top notch and so is the firewall.

BitDefender detected trojans other security suites missed. Even though I'm still unsure about whether they were false positives, I'd rather err on the side of caution.

From all the security suites I have used, this is the only one that shows me the network traffic being used per process. Just think of a process manager like the one you ... Read More

Rating: - 64-bit winner
I bought this product to protect an older Windows XP PC (5 years old), and a new 64-bit Windows XP (2002 SP2) laptop. Installation was flawless on both machines. I expected to have to download a 64-bit update of BitDefender "by hand" from the author's web site, but the software on the CD that I received worked w/o any problems, and without any manual work on my part. An initial scan ran fine on both machines found a few infected files which I quarantined as directed by BitDefender. I did not need to ... Read More

Rating: - BitDefender needs to work on installers and get Win certified
I downloaded and installed (well sort of) the trial version. When the system rebooted, the firewall, av, and most other services were disabled. When I attempted to reenable them, nothing happened. Tried to reinstall - same issue. They really need to work on testing their solution on more platforms. I am running a Dell XPS Gen2 2GB RAM, Centrino (single core) 2Ghz with WinXP Pro sp3. I too received a few notices about the product not passing Windows Logo certification. This is really unacceptable for ... Read More
