Version: BitDefender Antivirus 2009
"The worst antivirus on the market!"
Pros: none. Well, you can delete it easily and get something that actually does work.
Cons: Do not buy this product! It is full of bugs and they know it. Their attitude is : deal with it. They expect the buyers to debug their product for them. I would rather do without.
Summary: Great if you want c. 1995 computer speed. Malware does not work and constantly says that you have never ran a scan. They know this is a problem, send a fake patch that does nothing. Otherwise, expect no help from support. Makes mozilla crash every ... read more >>

Version: BitDefender Antivirus 2009
Pros: Easy to install, choice of 3 user interfaces of varying complexity, works on Vista. Upgrade to next version was easy. Reasonably priced (and coupons available)
Cons: Had some issues that took tech support a while to get to, still haven't been able to get the "network" feature (look at status of multiple PC from a PC) to work on more than one PC.
Summary: I couldn't get some of the well recognized names AV working on my PC without consuming a lot of CPU power. Bitdefender installed easily, doesn't take too much CPU power, has decent features and stops virus'. And doesn't cost too much.

Version: BitDefender Antivirus 2009
Pros: Low cost. Simple interface.
Cons: Has a knack for becoming unstable. Fouled up my registry. Significantly slows boot times in Vista x64. Lack of adequate support.
Summary: I've been using BitDefender since 2007 and I have given up on them. It consistently fouls up my Vista x64 installation. It works fine 50% of the time, but the other 50% is it a nightmare to deal with. I won't be renewing my license.

Version: BitDefender Antivirus 2009
Pros: Inexpensive.
Cons: Slow scan, slows computer, no response from customer service.
Summary: As soon as I downloaded this program my computer slowed drastically. Startup time was easily ten minutes. A full scan would take hours. Running other basic programs is impossible even when you just have the program running in the background (not sca... read more >>
