Bitdefender Antivirus Plus 2012 Full
you’re looking for a strong and easy antivirus software, Bitdefender Antivirus Plus
stands at the ready. Offering rock-solid security, simple usability,
effective resource usage and an enticing price point, Bitdefender
Antivirus Plus is the best antivirus software and our TopTenREVIEWS Gold Award
winner. It is a top-tier antivirus software solution with superior
protection and performance whether you’re an advanced user looking to
control the whole process manually or an average user who simply wants a
set-and-forget solution. This antivirus software provides protection
and peace of mind without taxing your PC performance or paycheck.
The software is available as boxed software or via online download. Both are easy to install and implement. Installation is quick and includes step-by-step instructions. The process includes a pre-installation scan and doesn’t require a reboot before you’re up and running.. The user interface is elegant and minimalistic. You can drag and drop modules to perform actions directly from the main window. The application uses a feature called Autopilot to make security-related decisions without prompting you for responses. There is nothing to configure, no alerts and no pop-ups. If you choose to make any manual changes to the security settings, Autopilot shuts itself off in the same way that your car's cruise control cancels itself if you tap the brakes.

The best aspect of the software is its unmatched level of security.
Active Virus Control is a feature that detects and demolishes stealth
threats using proactive measures to monitor all application activity. It
keeps an eye on suspicious file behaviors. One minor discrepancy won’t
stop the file in question (thus avoiding false-positives), but if enough
malware-like actions are detected, Bitdefender Active Virus Control
will lock it down. Malware has difficulty bypassing Active Virus Control
because most malware functions in kernel mode. The design of Active
Virus Control ensures that it does not have an undue impact on system
resources.
Bitdefender also monitors privacy settings on Facebook and Twitter and blocks any threatening links that your friends send you from inside those social media networks. An Anti-fraud Filter detects fraudulent websites that are likely to scam and blocks you from fake banks, escrow scams and career/employment scams. Another way in which the product protects you from scammers is with a free credit monitoring service. The service is available within the United States and it will alert you if it discovers changes to your credit reports.

When, inevitably, threats such as rootkits breach all other defenses
and burrow deeply into the operating system, you can reboot in Rescue
mode, which places you into an environment where you can perform cleanup
and restoration. If you pop in a CD, DVD or USB drive, the system
detects the action and scans the media for threats.
A special tool worth mentioning is the secure gamer mode. Whether you’re playing a video game or in full-screen mode for a presentation or video, the gamer mode turns off any interruptions but doesn’t sacrifice security. You can even set up a list of games or other applications that require gamer mode for a completely automatic solution. A similar feature is the laptop mode, which saves resources when a laptop is unplugged.
While the proactive, heuristic detection and real-time prevention technology fight off new threats, timely virus definition updates are also an essential part of antivirus software. Bitdefender can perform updates automatically and run in the background without slowing down your computer. You don’t have to update manually (though you can if you want), and you don’t have to worry about updates slowing down your system. Furthermore, you don’t have to worry about updates causing problems or losing program files. If file damage occurs, Bitdefender automatically repairs itself with the newest working update.
