I don't run anything else and my system is clean. MSE just works. I ran BitDefender. Eset and Kaspersky before and something has always found it's way through. ClamWin AV is much better, or used to be, then Eset and other paid AVs also. If MSE wasn't around, I would be using ClamWin.

I don't care what those reviews say. I use what works and MSE does the job.

It does the job yes but it sort of throws lot of false positive lastly. I think i got 2 or 3 false positive by MSE in the last 6 months while browsing totally clean and safe web site.

I used Bitdefender back in the days when it was not expensive. Was an awesome AV. It's free for 2 years so gonna use it again.

I got one false positive since I started using it.

Yeah, I just excluded various folders with MSE but was shocked when I couldn't ignore things that were caught but were false positives with Bitdefender Free. But, I have heard good reviews so I'm excited to try this out.

I think you need to turn auto pilot off and put the av in user mode to be able to ignore alert. Not sure though.

I disabled the anti-phising/privacy parts and had to put it in user mode to disable the warnings about it being disabled, so that might be the case.

Thanks torrentthief, for the heads up and the key. BD AV+ 2013 for 676 days. Thanks again!

I am finding it interesting lately that a lot of Antivirus vendors are giving away 1 year licenses or sometimes less. I have a half year right now with Panda Antavirus Cloud Pro that I got free and then Advanced System Care Ultimate Which expires in November of this year that I got through them which also happens to have an Antivirus. (Double protection I know), but not noticing any slow speeds on my end as a result. :)

How did you get 676 days? Both keys register just a year for me.

Whoops!! I didn't notice I was in the other thread.... sorry. I am using the key from that thread, but I noticed just now that the program says 2013, but the dashboard says the 676 days is for 2012, so I'm not sure I have the whole 676 days the program says I do. The about box says - Virus Signature - 8714338, and Engine Version 7.45284.

EDIT: It's not showing a device associated with the account.. not sure why because it was earlier.

EDIT #2: Device is showing up now, but the key is showing version 2012 for 676 days.. :iiam:

Just a reminder its the first link to Internet Security NOT the second softpedia link as this is the basic antivirus package and it will gripe about it being the wrong type of key.

Note: The other thread mentioned is for the basic Antivirus this thread is for the Internet security package

I sent you a spare I have it should work as long as you register it before the 24th

Thank you, I'll try it later!

It might be because I registered it with Bitdefender Windows 8 Security.

Damn. Did they kill it? I can't check my brother's laptop at the moment.

Looks like it.

Personally i was suspicious. Usually if it is not on the web site it means it's reserved to the people who got the mail. That's why when it was posted i asked to the op if he had the right to share it. I might be wrong might just be a mistake from the company or a problem with the keys validation server but all my licenses right now are shown as invalid and i can't really say i'm surprised that much.

I checked my product list in the dashboard (MyBitdefender) and it says there's 358 days left. I'm about to check my brother's laptop to see if the program says it's invalid.

EDIT: It looks like it's still valid on my brother's laptop. I was able to update it without any issues.

Mine show valid also at MyBitDefender. Definitely something odd. I'm not really surprised about the FREE thing. Several other "middle-tier" vendors have done it before.

    • 25th anniversary Xbox Series X unveiled with classic translucent green design

      What? They aren't removing the disc drive and charging $800 for questionable performance upgrades? How outrageous!

      Bummer it's only 1TB instead of 2. I had one of those - the "Halo Special Edition" OG Xbox. This looks like a cool update.

    • Google's NotebookLM gets some useful features you may have been waiting for

      By Aditya Tiwari · Posted

      Google's NotebookLM gets some useful features you may have been waiting for by Aditya Tiwari It's been three years since Google introduced its AI-powered note-taking and research app, NotebookLM. Just when Apple is about to kick off WWDC 2026, the search giant has announced a platter of new NotebookLM features that add agentic capabilities in chat and more advanced reasoning. For starters, NotebookLM now draws its fuel from Gemini 3.5 and Antigravity to improve accuracy and reliability. One of the things people have been asking for a long time is more transparency into the thinking steps. NotebookLM now shows expanded thinking steps in chat, providing better visibility into the thinking process. Google compared the upgraded NotebookLM with prior versions and found that it "achieved an average win rate of over 65% — a 15% point margin above parity — across our top five core evaluation dimensions," including accuracy & quality, multilingual support, large document analysis, document creation, and advanced research. It showed substantial improvements in analyzing large documents, achieving a 69.9% win rate. The system also delivered "exceptional performance" in advanced web research and source discovery with a 78.2% win rate. The AI research tool now generates outputs in more formats. You can give instructions to guide the outputs and download the generated files from the studio panel. Here are the newly supported formats: PNG and SVG for data visualizations and charts PDFs, docx, markdown, and text files for documents PNG, JPG, and GIF for images JSON and CSV for structured data XLSX for Microsoft Excel PPTX for Microsoft PowerPoint You can make edits after the outputs are generated. The feature is available globally; therefore, you can provide directions in one language and create outputs in another. Google said that it's also making it easier to get started with a project in NotebookLM. Instead of having a list of sources beforehand, you can even start with loose ideas, and NotebookLM can help build the repository of sources through the chat. For instance, you can find primary sources in other languages to get new perspectives or explore related works of an author. All of these new features are rolling out globally for those who can loosen up their pockets. They are available to users with Google AI Ultra and all Workspace business customers with AI Ultra access. Google has plans to expand them to more users in the future.
