[QUOTE="SeriousHoax, post: 1007683, member: 78686"] Yeah, Bitdefender is fast because they don't do HTTPS scanning on many sites. Website wise or certificate wise, they have a large whitelist. These are sites that they are probably confident of not having any malicious contents. So that's why browsing is very fast. Avast & ESET are the fastest in my experience on sites where they perform HTTPS scanning and also lower CPU usage. About F-Secure, I found browsing to be very fast when I tried it, but I saw a couple of users who had issues with browsing speed. Can't really tell about website blocking as I never used it for too long because it gives me some other problems. F-Secure's super slow response to user submission is a major problem indeed. I don't remember receiving a response from them in less than 7 days, which is already too long if it's a false positive. 20 days is extreme. Bitdefender, Kaspersky, Norton and Microsoft are very fast at fixing false positives in my experience. Microsoft is fast 7 days a week, while the other four I mentioned won't be responsive during weekends. [/QUOTE]
