    Hello Aries Santoso,


    There are now two types of install packages:


    - one for both evaluating the product and (eventually) registering it with a valid license key.


    - another only for installing BitDefender after already purchasing a license key . They are usually received with the confirmation email from the vendor and are marked with ****_purchase.exe in the file name.


    I recommend uninstalling the current version from the Control Panel -> Add/Remove and after Restart, use the link below to reinstall:

    Very disappointed...!!! Why you don't provide the trial as default to download.. Other AV's provide all installer with trial period without register anything... Is there any offline installer for that? I really hate with the downloader...


    Big size of installer make me sick..!! just for an AV??? better fix it...

    Where did you download from? The default package on bitdefender.com is for trial (explained above)

    make sure there's trial options at this time... downloading now...


    some note: my ISP is ###### ###### in here.. only 30 KB/s... take more than 2 hours for downloading only for an AV?


    Why BitDefender AntiVirus 2011 so huge compare other AV? Avast just 69 MB, Norton only 88 MB...
