Why is Bitdefender Internet Security bad and yet gets good reviews?

Isn't the AV-C Performance Test to determine how "heavy" an AV is?

Take a look. I don't think I can link it.

Its like bitdefender has a twin. A Dr. Jekyll & Mr. Hyde. When i was trialling it 50% said as you said. Good stuff. But the rest of us swear it was like carrying a bag of cement on your back. And we were all talking about the same AV. This would be about 12 months ago. June-July 2011.

 

If thats your top 3, you clearly have never tried any cloud products or even AVG. I can tell you that for sure.

 

I have tried Panda and Trend and Kaspersky and its lighter for me.

 

Maybe it sounds crazy,but KIS 2013 feels lighter on my laptop than Panda Cloud or Avast free or of course,Bitdefender.

 

I did try KIS 2013 and while it is slightly lighter than 2012 it is no where near the performance I would personally want on my computer.

Try launching a huge setup file for example Nero 11 (383 MB) and watch your system crawl to death.

I am talking about a top of the line system here (specs in sig)

Kaspersky and McAfee are the heaviest 2 AVs hands down. At least Kaspersky is good though
