Description:
BDIS 2008 is the absinthe of anti-viruses. It's memory draining but quite effective; amongst anti-viruses it has the best virus detection and removal performance. The software is quite heavy on the memory and hence, recommended only for PCs having atleat 1 GB of RAM. BD is known for its large database in viruses and, in terms of viral detection and removal, outshines most of it's competition. The BDIS anti-virus scanner does take it's time and requires more memory, in addition to the memory used by the real-time monitor, but gets the job done. The real-time protection monitor is as potent, with quick detection as soon as any unauthorized application tries to download malware on to your PC.
The firewall is quite robust. The only downside being that it keeps on nagging you everytime you open a net-utilizing application. BDIS also provides a 'gamer mode' which decreases it's memory requirements and affords users a hassle-free gaming experience.
Upsides:
A puissant virus detection and removal performance, robust firewall, disinfects RAR files, vigilant real-time monitor, considerate gamer mode
Downsides:
Downsides:
Inability to disinfect archives, high memory usage, engines remain active despite turning BitDefender off, peevish firewall alerts, obstinately tries to delete the crack even if specified as an exception, problems relating to BDIS engines not launching due to insufficient administrative rights (for pirated software users only)
