Title: ClamWin and Bitdefender
Post by: Sinkhan on July 26, 2006, 10:05:23 AM
Has anyone ever used ClamWin free and Bitdefender Free Edition? I've read about them from various places, but am not sure about them. I've also heard that Bitdefender Free expires after a year...is that true?

I believe BitDefender free only lasts 30 days as a trial (From what I read). Clamwin is okay, yet still no comparison to a full subscribed antivirus, which is what you should be looking for if you want maximum protection.

Not sure why you would want to use fringe products when there are so many better known ones, and free to boot.

Well, I just want to see if they're worth using at all. I already use avast! and plan to get AntiVir.

One antivirus running at a time is all you need. More than that causes problems.
