Hello,
I won a license for Bitdefender a couple months ago during a giveaway on here and I installed it and it gave me numerous problems. It's scanning speed is just horrendous. When I installed it and rebooted it locked me out of my internet and I couldn't use it. I eventually got it working again by fooling around with the settings located in the firewall component. Then I noticed system slow downs and slow internet speeds. By that time I just had enough and went back to avast! and never looked back again at it.
The only thing I like about Bitdefender is that it has amazing detection rates but most antivirus companies that are using it's engine are actually better than Bitdefender itself, which is quite sad. I somehow feel they are making more money off people using their engine than people buying subscriptions from them to use their software.
