Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)I installed this programm on Vista Home Premium running PC. It slowed it so significantly. Before I had McAfee programm and it didn't have any problems with Vista. It (Panda) will make your fast computers into slow moving train. Waste of money.
Update:
Now two days ago when I finally tinkered with firewall (setting which allows certain programs and files to have inbound or outbound or both internet connections) program started to work normally and it doesn't slow my computer at all. It seems by default Panda is very restrictive in allowing your programs to have free internet browsing. There are also intel's remoting services files which don't liked to be blocked by Panda. In short, if something doesn't work when you install Panda try to check your's Panda firewall setting, if you won't firewall will make a wall in your computer.
Update, one more: Here is my letter to Panda customer support: After installing your programm on my Vista home premium PC, my computer started to perform very slowly. Prior to installing Panda I had McAfee antivirus software which didn't slow my system at all (I uninstalled it already). What is going on? Why your programm makes my computer so slow? Please, don't tell me its because Vista is bad programm. I know that Vista is bad but it worked wonderfull with McAfee software and it doesn't with your Panda. I really regret that I installed your programm at my computer. Is there any way to make it not slowing my system.
Here is Technical support answer: Hello,
The reason the computer is operating slowly is because there is most likely remnants of McAfee still on the system. You should run their removal utility to make sure that all remnants of McAfee are removed properly and so it does not conflict with Panda.
It appears that you may have remnant files from McAfee Security application on your system causing conflict for Panda during the installation. In order for you to remove the remnant files, please click on the following link to the view the instructions:

Here is again my answer: Thank you for your help. I did remove all McAfee software. However it wasn't the reason Panda slowed my computer. It appeared that some default setting on Panda Firewall blocked lots of program's inbound and outbound internet connections on my computer. After a changed the setting letting outbound connection to some of my programs-computer started to work normally. I, as a customer, would advise you not to put such powerful defaults in your firewall since it may scare people of not buying your programm at all, since it literally brings computer to a stop and takes lots of macnine resources.
I hope this help someone to find solution to their panda problem
