Cyberdefender Or A Panda?
Feb 15, 2009
I got a couple of viruses in the last month, even though I had Norton anti-virus on my system and AVG – both were installed on my system by someone else. I am looking at anti-virus programs, I want to pay cuz my experience with free software has not been all that good. A good friend recommended Panda anti-virus, and some forums also listed it as ones they liked, as well as I found some good reviews of Cyberdefender.
I liked that Cyberdefender seems to be a more complete package, covering anti-virus, trojans, spyware, id theft protection. Panda did seem easy to use though. Panda doesn’t seem as good to me, but lots of people seemed to like it. I checked CNET for reviews, and they rated AVG very high, but my experience was not so good.....

I don't know if this is the right place for this or not, but I can'tget any help out of Panda at all, so i'm kind of grasping right now.... I use Vista Ultimate with Panda Titanium as my AV/Firewall. Panda is causing my IE to sometimes lag 40 seconds in opening up pages. On average, it's about 60 percent of the pages I open that lag this much. pages that run ads and such are pretty much a given. I run the same panda AV on my XP machine and it doesn't lag this bad. And if I turn off Panda, pages load up without delay. So it is definately Panda causing the problem.... or is it Vista?.....
I'm not sure what exactly I'm after except to somehow change the situation. Does anybody else use panda with the same results? or do other panda users have no lag? Is windows capable of protecting itself with it's own security measures? [probably asking for it with that question....] I know of plenty of AV packages, are there other suggestions about what might be causing the problems or places I might check for a remedy to the slowdown? Panda is, i suppose, uninterested in helping since they won't respond to my tech support inquiries. Either this is the way it is supposed to be, so they don't other, or well, i don't know. but i'm tired of the delays. it's too frustrating having to wait this much time for pages to load.
