BitDefender - Avangard
BitDefender Internet Security v2012 brought my PC to a crawl, internet unusable

I downloaded BitDefender Internet Security v2012 when my Trend Micro subscription ran out, after doing some researching and finding that it was rated pretty well among the top several antivirus apps for features, usability, and so on.

What a mistake. After downloading and installing, I noticed that internet pages were downloading incredibly slow, taking upwards of a minute when before they were ten to fifteen seconds (I was running it on a relatively old XP machine). I hated the interface, which was not at all intuitive, and some things you had to do online rather after creating a login, rather that in the control panel
itself. I finally got so frustrated with the degraded speed of my computer that I uninstalled it altogether. What a relief to be able to use my PC again!

I requested a refund from the company, and they wanted to send me more of their crappy software to install to diagnose the issue. No thanks. I'll pass.
