Got it man thanks.

Does this look about right to you? Only thing I have noticed so far is it take awhile for the BD icon to show up in the system tray upon reboot/startup. WD and F-Secure are much quicker in that respect.

No worries, because the services are loading, Firewall, rules, the protection is there, it will get faster on your system after a couple of days

Got you. I did not install the VPN app. As I was here on the site I got a popup that a system update was being downloaded for BD. Not sure of the changelog. Assume it was not just signature updates.

This one also fixes the slow start, but be patient with it, let BD Settle on you pc for a couple of days
How it it running ?

Hard to say man as I was not on it long enough to tell. This am when I started it up, BD was still slow to load in the systray when I logged in. Logging in seemed to take longer as well. The only thing I have noticed for whatever reason, browsing seems faster with BD vs. WD or FS.

The systray icon doesn’t matter. It is only the ui. The actual AV processes load up almost immediately at startup.
