Good Points

Easy to set up, and auto updates OK.


Bad Points

Incompatible with other products (Spyware Search and Destroy for example). Bit Defender claimed that it could stop Spyware, so I wouldn't need anything else. After a few months though, my PC slowed down and I ran an independent scan to find the computer riddled with Spyware.

The software continually had problems running scans. In the end, Bit Defender slowed my PC down so badly it was unusable. It wouldn't let me uninstall either, so I had to jump through several hoops to get rid of it. Once that was done, the PC came back to normal.

Even at this price, this software is poor value for money and potentially dangerous to your computer.

I had several contacts with their tech support, and they make an effort to start, but as they fail to resolve a problem, they give up trying.

Very poor.


General Comments

BitDefender 9 Professional (Anitvirus & Firewall Protection software) is very disappointing software. I use my computer for my living, and I have been unable to use it properly on several occasions for prolonged periods of time.
