Team Fortress 2 Now Has Unbearable Lag

I play games on my computer and I had bitdefender 2008. I had no problems with any of my games, and latency is not an issue. I doublechecked that. Team Fortress 2 is now unplayable because it is skipping and slowing down immensely and I know why. Your program is a immense resource hog and I have no available memory left because it ###### it all up. I have 4 gigs of ram total, but now its all used.


Please tell me what I have to give you to resolve this issue, or I want a full refund for your product. I paid 90 dollars for this, and I want it to work. Don't tell me to use game mode in order to play the game. Why should I have to put myself at risk just to have your product work. I never used game mode in any games with 2008, I never had to.

    What have you done to check that BitDefender is the cause. Before blaming BitDefender make sure:


    (1) Its not your internet connection - remember that usually when it says up to e.g. up to 8mb - you get less and the more people using it in your home will reduce the speed. If its a peak time it may also be slower.


    (2) You don't have any programs running in the background and at startup that you don't need - programs sometimes such as itunes decide to try and have stuff running all the time - when not in use this can cause problems.


    (3) Have you got all security features on - for example if you have real protection set to scan every file constantly this can slow stuff down - security suites sadly by nature do stuff that slows them down - you can be secure without having the top settings on.


    (4) Sometimes slowdowns and even shut downs can be due to dust build up - my pc was contanslty causing problems and crashing due to large build up of dust especially by the graphics card.
