[QUOTE="Jonny Quest, post: 1057675, member: 99434"] And what's nice about this type of security configuration, is there is no hassle in dealing with, or of having to disable auto-renewal and hoping for a good price on the renewal. I know this thread is about the AV-Comparatives report, but just a couple of suggestions. [URL='https://www.bitdefender.com/consumer/support/answer/29081/']Disable auto-renewal[/URL] and about 2 weeks before your subscription runs out, in an email they will offer you a better deal to stay with them. Also, in Settings/General disable Special Offers and Recommendation notifications. I would also maybe consider disabling [URL='https://community.bitdefender.com/en/discussion/comment/325614/#Comment_325614']Profiles[/URL], as that can sometimes cause confusion with changes made to BD updates etc. but that is up to you :) It may also depend on a person's confidence in Windows firewall or their comfort in running a 3rd party Firewall with what may be confusing settings, possibly causing more grief than help?
