The 2011 version of the Antivirus Pro product is not nearly as good as the 2010 version. It seems every picture, ad, graphic that I see on Yahoo is scanned. Slow lethargic browsing speeds are approaching earlier versions of Norton Security Suite, which I dumped in favor of BitDefender products at the recommendation of my local computer guru. Processes on my computer routinely steal 30-60% of my processing speed with a T2400 Intel processor @1.83GHz and 3 GB of RAM, using Windows XP Home with Service Pack 3
Have open ticket on this issue Ticket ID:201012081002457. Cosmin Zamfir, BitDefender Technical Support Engineer, told me to disable Search Advisor and Antiphishing modules for Windows Explorer, and for a brief time, that worked. Now, the slow browsing speed issue has returned, and a major portion of the protection I'm paying for is deactivated. Mr. Zamfir has not replied to my latest email sent 10 days ago. Most of the help I get from the support pages assumes one owns Bitdefender's most complete products. Most of the references there are for features I don't have.
Is it possible to revert back to Antivirus 2010? I had much better performance with it than the new, improved 2011 product...
Thanks!
