Removed :
Norton360 Premium

Switched to :
G DATA Total Security + G DATA Webprotection

Why ?
Norton in combination with NordVPN makes the VPN boot slow as hell.
Now all fast again.

I had it on evaluation now on as well

Well G DATA was short term install, still not stable.

Switched to :

, i know i made a lot of negative comments about it, but since i have a license , why not use it.

So far no issues , works well with NordVPN.

And did a complete fresh installation of Windows 11, so no traces of any other old AV.

Dumped NordVPN, i got a 2 years subscription for free, but :

• Slow as hell to boot/start up
• Why Single Sign on thru Website ? ( this is slow and mostly will not work )
• Connection drops all the time
• The app is not very smart

Bought 2 years subscription of Bitdefender VPN, which i used before.

What servers and how many is BD VPN connecting to? Try going to ipleak.net to see. I know at one time they were using Google servers, but I don't know if it's changed since the last time I used it. There was also talk about them setting up their own servers, but I don't know if that's happened yet.

 

[TuxTalk]

Still Google. No change.

SInce i want a European AV, i switched back to :

together with

F-Secure and Emsisoft are not an option for me.
