[QUOTE="mlnevese, post: 906719, member: 36157"] The only thing preventing me from switching to Bitdefender is their Documents protection. It really needs automatic white listing. During the period I tested it on my personal computer it blocked Calibre's access to its library, corrupting it and making me lose all my book annotations. Fortunately, I had a recent backup. It also blocked all games I tested from writing to the Documents folder causing an initial crash and loss of everything I did in the game. Now imagine if I have to manually authorize every game my older son installs and uninstalls to save in Documents Folder. Notice that none of the games blocked were new. We're talking about games like Skyrim, for instance. I could, of course, disable it but then what's the point of even having it in place? The day they announce they have added an automated white listing to this feature; I will certainly consider switching as I had a very positive experience with it. [/QUOTE]
