Great deal for Bitdefender .. Bonus is that its a 2 year License.

Worked for me. Didnt need a VPN.

As per comments , best way to pay for this is via PayPal after you have added a USA address to your account and choose bank funding

You may need to add a US address or your local Hotel @ Las Vegas

    Whats your take on NOD32 vs Bitdefender? I've heard good things for Bitdefender but i'm currently using my NOD32 and i have no troubles so far, on the other hand, my parents (computer illiterates) are using NOD32 and seems to have gotten tons of virus…

      your parents like dodgy porn sites seems the obvious answer

        Hmm… so when i ask for opinion, i get an attack on my parents and there are actually up votes…

        Whilst that may be true, i would appreciate you keep your attacks to myself and not anyone related to me. Also, i don't need you commenting on anything my parents do.

        Thanks

        • ProjectZero on 16/01/2014 - 13:48

        • ProjectZero on 16/01/2014 - 13:50
          +3

          What i'm upset about is the fact that i was asking for opinion on whether to switch to NOD32, not what my parents were doing when their computer got affected.

          As i said, whilst that may be true, i don't see how that was actually called for.

        • [Deactivated] on 16/01/2014 - 14:21

          I would choose Bitdefender over NOD32, last time I used nod32 and then changed to another antivirus, so many virus were found when scanning, apparently having NOD32 was like not having anything.

          It was just a throw away, light hearted remark. Anyway anecdotal evidence of one case is no way to compare antivirus software. Have a look at AVComparatives.

        • ModaMagic on 16/01/2014 - 23:14

          I'm pretty sure BitDefender beats Nod32 in every field according to AV Test

          Good lord, what a sook. If you really do consider what he said as 'an attack' you really just shouldn't leave the house, or talk to anyone at all…especially on the internet. It was clearly a joke. I picture you getting offended by a slight breeze….

    • easternculture on 16/01/2014 - 12:15

      I've been using the bitdefender from the westpac promo .. best one I've used so far. It doesn't slow down my laptop like other antiviruses,

      And the safepay feature is a plus, it adds another level of security when your using internet banking

      • AussieMark on 16/01/2014 - 13:35

        I've been using this too, really like it. Did have to add one or two exclusions for hacking games and things like that.

        Best one i've used so far.

        My westpac one expires in 30 days, do you know if you can just keep doing it Eastern? I think you need to make a new account as I have it on two laptops and a tablet at the moment and they all sync to expire at the same time. Happy to pay $8 for two years for great software.

        Cannot remember if the westpac is 6 or 12 months

    • [Deactivated] on 16/01/2014 - 13:33

      my parents (computer illiterates) are using NOD32 and seems to have gotten tons of virus…

      Isn't NOD32 just doing its job if it's picking up those viruses? A lesser antivirus program would just let those viruses stay there undetected… ;)

      • ProjectZero on 16/01/2014 - 13:39

        By that i mean it has already affected the computer. And i actually have to reformat the machine occasionally

  • lostn on 16/01/2014 - 12:22

    When I installed it a few weeks ago, it increased my boot time dramatically. Once I got to the welcome screen I got a black screen for a while. Then enter my password get another black screen lasting 2+ mins.

    Had to remove it the next day.

  • SirNed on 16/01/2014 - 12:24

    I too am a Nod32 user of about 5 years and never had a problem with it. Might want to check your parents computer and see what is going on.

    • lostn on 16/01/2014 - 12:28

      I used them too until a few weeks ago when my subscription expired. ESET was not a memory hog. But I've read in reviews its detection rate ranks quite low compared to others.

      • RedHab on 16/01/2014 - 12:48

        yes, I liked NOD, but poor detection rates made me move to Norton, which is not as easy to use, but detects malware.

      • Gnostikos on 16/01/2014 - 13:28
        +1

        But I've read in reviews its detection rate ranks quite low compared to others.

        That's not true at all.
        Compared to the commercial juggernauts like Norton, Trend, McAfee and BitDefender it's as near as makes no difference in real-word usage.

        Also, NOD32 has one of the lowest false positives rates out there, which is a god send if you've ever used something that flags every 5th file or website you open as "riskware/trojan generic/suspicious/potentially dangerous".

        Not to mention it's one of the lightest and least bloated AV suites.

        Kaspersky is the only definitive step up from the majority of AV software but to me it's like a Norton that actually functions; with all the Norton intrusiveness and sluggishness.

        Comodo Internet Security is probably the best consumer AV/personal firewall/sandbox suite out there as it's the only thing to consistently pass Matousec's ridiculous security challenges; but it seriously impedes your connectivity and functionality without a whole lot of configuration and is a total system hog.

      • ProjectZero on 16/01/2014 - 13:37

        That's what i was kind of afraid of, detection seems fine for stuff that i do.

        But my parents download asian dramas and that to me is the most likely source =/. I've told them time and time again to stop since we have tvbj subscriptions anyway but apparently "its more up to date"

        Anyone in a similar situation butis using Bitdefender?

  • PowerB on 16/01/2014 - 12:33

    I'm a Bitdender user since Westpac gave it away, and it's my favorite anti-virus! Only had one issue - it doesn't let me play GTA4 without setting up an exclusion (doesn't like Rockstar Social Club - neither do I) but that wasn't hard to fix. :)

  • bohn on 16/01/2014 - 12:45

    I don't like bitdefender.
    Got onto a free Eset nod32 recently and find it to be a better program.

  • [Deactivated] on 16/01/2014 - 13:40

    I've been using Bitdefender for a couple of years now on a few PCs (still have a few years of free licenses left!) and I haven't experienced any problems that would make me want to go back to (paying for) NOD32. No issues with boot times or resource hogging or false positives, and it seems to be well rated in various third-party tests in terms of detection rates.

    • ryang on 16/01/2014 - 14:17

      MSSE has been scoring rather poorly in recent years, probably becoming a target like most of MSs products. Support is also a big issue with MSSE - you pretty much have none.

    • [Deactivated] on 16/01/2014 - 15:44

      These people use Ms SE as their baseline cezond. Pick your OS and take a look at the ratings.

    • lostn on 17/01/2014 - 00:57

      How do you know you don't have a problem? It could be that you are infected with something and MSSE doesn't know about it.

    • EarlyBird on 18/01/2014 - 08:36

      I've been using MSE / Windows Defender and Malwarebytes for a couple of years without any problem. An AV program will not be sufficient if it does not include malware detection. I'd avoid Russian and PRC websites whenever possible as they seemed to be the source of many viruses and malwares. I also use a popup-blocker.

      Has anyone tried running Bitdefender alongside Malwarebytes?

  • [Deactivated] on 16/01/2014 - 14:23

    Dammit. Just got this email.

    Your order (Sales Order Number: xxxxxxxx) cannot be processed at this time. We could not verify the address that is on file with your card-issuing bank. All orders must have a verifiable U.S. billing address and issued by a U.S. bank.

      Mine worked and I have the key. Basically I just changed the shipping address in PayPal that comes up at the top.

      Used my real name then las Vegas hotel address. Seems to check state and zip code is a match.

      Used direct bank as payment not sure if that's relevant tho.

      Mine expires in 60 days so not sure if it adds 2 years or I should wait a bit before activating. I'll check with their staff

      • [Deactivated] on 16/01/2014 - 14:32

        I did that but with V.me but the credit card attached to that still has an AU address on it. Ditto for PayPal and Visa. As I can't direct pay I'm pretty much stuffed. Anyone else care to order this for me and send me the key? Will put $10 into your PayPal account immediately.

      • tusker on 16/01/2014 - 21:41

        You can buy 3 pieces, and then chat to BitDefender on their live chat, and they will combine them into one license.

      This happened to one of my laptops too. I think it is because I had total security and internet security trying to finish the install every time I restarted.

      Also blocked the internet from working when I corrupted the install.

      Pain in the butt as its stuck in a repair loop now. Was trying to uninstall internet security and install total security

      • congo on 24/01/2014 - 15:10

        I emailed BitDefender support as I was stuck in a recovery loop as well.

        Their response was to wait for a BitDefender updated version that should/would resolve this known issue with windows 8.
