[QUOTE="ForgottenSeer 89360, post: 917139"] You can turn these annoyances off in Bitdefender and you can uninstall Kaspersky VPN. The problem is Avira has now merged all in one package. Before it was installing every app separately, but now you need to have it all. As for Norton Cloud Storage, if you are a new user, they must tell you that. You’ve paid for it and you might not know you’ve got it. You can’t call every notification an annoyance, but pushing unwanted apps and unrequested “secure” browsers, not more secure than Chrome, is definitely annoying. Many AVs include some small tune-up and clean-up components, as well as updaters, but it’s all one app and these features are just one *.dll file. In Avira case, it’s all different apps. [/QUOTE]
