subject: BitDefender Total Security 2010 [print this page] One last note about the UI: there's a lot of popups. We mean that in two ways: one, it's not a self-contained interface. When you open something from the main screen (say, a tuneup utility) it will open in a separate window. You could easily end up with three or four open windows in your taskbar without even trying. But BitDefender also spat out popups from our system tray. One was the firewall alert we got just after setting up the program, and we got another when we plugged in a USB drive. Fortunately, you can check a box (in the popup, of course) to halt the deliver of popups in similar situations.
