My system is running Windows 7 64-bit and F-Secure 2013. When trying to download games from Steam, I have tried the following scenarios on my system: (1) F-Secure 2013 ON, Windows Defender ON - Intermittent and slow Steam game download (None - 200 KB/s) (2) F-Secure 2013 ON, Windows Defender OFF, System Rebooted - Intermittent and slow Steam game download (None - 200 KB/s) (3) F-Secure 2013 ON, Windows Firewall OFF, Windows Defender OFF, System Rebooted - One game downloaded via Steam at slightly reduced speed (3.x MB/s). Second game experienced intermittent and slow Steam download (None - 200 KB/s). (4) F-Secure 2013 ON, DeepGuard OFF, Windows Firewall OFF, Windows Defender OFF, System Rebooted - Intermittent and slow Steam game download (None - 200 KB/s) (5) F-Secure 2013 ON, Virus and Spyware Scanning OFF, DeepGuard OFF, Windows Firewall OFF, Windows Defender OFF, System Rebooted - Intermittent and slow Steam game download (None - 200 KB/s) (6) F-Secure 2013 Removed, Windows Firewall ON, Windows Defender OFF, System Rebooted - Fast Steam download (4.5 MB/s - 5.5 MB/s) (7) F-Secure 2013 Removed, Windows Firewall ON, Windows Defender ON, System Rebooted - Fast Steam download (4.x MB/s) At this point, I don't know what else I can try. But, it does seem like F-Secure 2013 is causing the bulk of the problem. I hope that I won't be forced to remove F-Secure 2013 every time I want to download a game from Steam. Please help. Thank you.
