Bitdefender Internet Security Review (Philippines)

The only "paid" antivirus I use prior to this was AVG Premium. Well, I decided to buy AVG before because I was using the free AVG version and decided that I try to upgrade it to premium. After it expired, I tried Bitdefender because my friend highly recommended it and so far, I am happy with it. It's been almost a month now.

Surprisingly, after installing Bitdefender Total Security, he found some malicious files that AVG premium wasn't able to detect. That itself is a very good indicator that this antivirus software is indeed better than the previous one I used. Also, I noticed that it is almost invisible. I hate it when my previous one updates in the middle of a presentation. The pop up is annoying. Very annoying. Using Bitdefender, it almost never bothered me.

I can't write a long review of the antivirus software because I am not an expert in this field but from what I can see, it is better than my previous one.

Some minor things I noticed:
- Very good detection
- Contrary to what others say, it didn't take long for Bitdefender to scan my laptop. i7/750gb almost full/8gb ram.
- Works well with Windows 7 (mine is premium version)

Here are some of the features. I took screenshots:




Also, when surfing the net, you will notice some green check marks or X marks beside the link like this:
It's a Bitdefender feature to let you know in advance if the link is safe or not. Cool, huh?
