I just installed the Total security 2011 version on my in-laws Toshiba laptop and it rendered the computer nearly unusable. The computer was running extremely slow and I finally had to turn off all of the Bit Defender security settings to free up the computer again. First what is the best way to make sure there are no other security programs on the computer? I didn't see any, but I don't know if some of them are hidden. Also what other information do I need to give you to help diagnose this issue? I have the 2011 Total Security version on my desktop at home and it runs just fine.
