BitDefender Antivirus Pro 2011

BitDefender offers three very different views for its user interface: basic, intermediate, and expert. Those who just want unobtrusive protection can choose the basic view. Intermediate view gives access to more features and settings, while expert view exposes every detail of the program's operation. In any of the views, you can choose which features will show up in the easy-access list of tools on the main dashboard page. 
Customization starts during installation; you choose your initial view and make selections for your set of tools. During installation you'll register the product, create an online account, and optionally perform initial configuration for the product's network-based remote management. It takes a little time and attention, but, when installation is complete, the product is personalized to your taste and ready to spring into action.
In testing last year's BitDefender suite, I had tons of trouble installing on malware-infested systems. The company successfully addressed that problem with a quick scan for active malware at the beginning of installation. On all but one of my infested test systems the preinstall scan found and removed threats. After a required reboot, installation continued automatically.
