    F-Secure uses Windows Firewall as it's firewall, so that is correct, but it sounds like you still have traces of a past installation of Bitdefender on the machine, so I would suggest you run their uninstallation tool, which you can find here:

    I have win 8.1 and i cannot get f-secure to my micro. The program begins to load files, but nothing happens. Even if i wait to the next morning. How can i load files ??

    Hello,

     

    Sorry if current words will be "not nice", but can you check.. if you have any other protection-software installed?!

     

    Or here can be enough something with firewall or web-traffic-scanning.

     

    Also.... what certainly you mean during "load files" -> here have some description by F-Secure - what happened on current time?

  • Hello Jussu,

     

    Could you confirm the product you try to install? Could you provide a screenshot of any eventual error message you are facing?
