Is BitDefender the Best Antivirus? - Comments Page 2

Thank you for sharing these results and explaining them in a way that the average person can understand them. I am surprised at the findings.
I have PC cillin trend now for 2 years on 3 home computers that get a lot of internet use...one by a teenager. I have not had any crashes or viruses. In the past when I had Bit Defender, I got invaded by a virus so severly that my computer crashed and It cost me a lot of money to have a PC store clean it and retrieve my files. I still didn't retrieve everything. Before that I had Norton and it was just a pain in every way imaginable plus I got a virus and a lot of mal ware.
I was amazed to see that PC cillin was at the bottom of the ratings.
Feel free to respond or add aditional input.
Thanks again.

I am a firm believer in Avast 7 free edition.You can scheduel scans,it up dates itself and has a sandbox that will grab something you downloaded and asks you if you are sure you wanted it.
It also has shields you can modify to your needs.
It doesnt seem to be a resource hogger and runs smoothly all the time.
It will alert you when it starts a scan and you can decline if you are doing things it would slow down.
I have tried almost every AV program and am very happy with Avast.I am a download freak and it has saved me a couple times.I highly recommend it,and NO I dont work for Avast or know any one who does.

I appreciate the the information you provide us. I have been using Panda for approx. 6 years on 3 home computers. I am basically satisfied with it. However, I am always checking to see if there is anything better. My Panda subscription is up in 15 days. This article has been helpful. I probably would switch to BD but got scared off by some of the negitive comments. Panda scored right behind BD so I guess I will stay with it for now.

This information came at a good time for me. I have used Panda on three home computers for approx 6 years and I have basically been pleased. My subscription is up in 15 days. I considered BD after reading the testing results, but after reading some of the negitive comments about it was unsure. Panda fell just a little behind BD ratings so I will probably stay with it for now. If you have any additional information that would help me, I would appreciate you posting it.
Thank you for keeping all of us on top of what is happening.

Finally Fast PC is actually running tv commercials stating that they are better than Bit Defender and Kaspersky but their product never even makes the list in any tests. I'm actually going to drop my Kaspersky and go with Bit Defender.
