I’ve been using Kaspersky Antivirus Free for around nine months now. There ware few other minor annoyances, but these are the ones I recall.Īt first glance the free bitdefender AV seems like the one to have, but with the aforementioned “issues”., it’s not for everyone.

I assume this is a paid “review” (advertisement), since you don’t mention any of the massive drawbacks the free version comes with (massive to me, at least).īecause the sole purpose of the free edition is to advertise the paid products, it has been designed to be VERY intrusive.
