Default Fraking BitDefender

Spent the past few days doing a total re install of my PC and laptop because of the screw up on their 64bit version..

Anyone else suffered a loss due to it?

I now use NOD32 as I cant trust BitDefender anymore..

I don't have 64bit yet but I have many friends who have and swear by NOD32.

Nod32 is far better, Bitdefender i tried the trial where it lagged windows, deleted it after a days use.
