Product Description
BitDefender GameSafe AntiVirus Defense keeps the impact on processing power, memory & virtual memory to a minimum, allowing gamers to maintain "in game" responsiveness and eliminating interruptions while fighting epic battles!
For the ultimate secured gaming experience, nothing beats BitDefender's GameSafe! It defends your PC from viruses, spyware and rootkits without affecting "in-game" responsiveness - due to its minimal impact on processing power, memory and virtual memory. When activated, GameSafe will postpone all updates, as well as block alerts and pop-ups, so that you will never be interrupted during game play. In addition, its firewall protects your Wi-Fi connection from unauthorized access. With One Click, GameSafe will: - Minimize processor time & memory/virtual memory consumption - Postpone automatic updates & scans - Eliminate all alerts and pop-ups - Set the scanning level to "permissive", so that only the most important files are scanned
Processor time
Processor time used is probably the best measure of "responsiveness". Background processes that dramatically reduce CPU cycles (like on-access antivirus) are highly undesirable.
Memory consumption
The amount of memory antivirus scanners use, greatly influences the overall "responsiveness" of the operating system.
Virtual memory
Games tend to be huge consumers of memory, so any memory swapping is bound to produce slow-downs.
Antivirus & Antispyware
- Hourly Updates - fastest in the industry at updating the list of known viruses and spyware
- Blocks even unknown viruses using advanced proactive detection techniques
- Detects and removes the newest breed of hidden threats known as rootkits
Anti-Phishing
- Protects against phishing attempts by filtering all accessed web pages
- Reduces the risk of identity theft by preventing personal information leaks via e-mail or web
Firewall
- No need to disable firewall while gaming, as it's designed to accept required connections
- Controls applications' access to the Internet while "hiding" your computer from hackers
- Helps prevent unauthorized access to your Wi-Fi network by notifying you when computers log into the network information

Editor's Review
BitDefender GamesSafe AntiVirus Defense is an extension of the popular Bitdefender Antivirus download aimed at the PC gamers market. It is for gamers who want to protect their PCs from viruses while maintaining their in-game performance and system power.
Built to run with a minimal performance and resource footprint, BitDefender GameSafe AntiVirus Defense includes a variety of useful features to ensure that gamers remain untouched - at least by their antivirus software. With a built-in firewall application and a range of 'gamer mode' enhancements, BitDefender GameSafe AntiVirus Defense is one of the most worthwhile and system-friendly antivirus applications for gamers.
There's one major concern for gamers: performance. While most PC users value safety and security in their antivirus software, many gamers prioritize speed and non-invasive performance. BitDefender GameSafe Antivirus Defense certainly delivers on both these counts - in-game popups are nonexistent thanks to GameSafe's built-in gaming features and non-intrusive design.
As well as being able to disable in-game popups, users can quickly and easily disable system scanning and maintenance while gaming. For non-gamers this function is largely unnecessary, but for dedicated gamers it's important to preserve system performance while in-game.
As an all-purpose antivirus application, BitDefender GameSafe AntiVirus Defense is very capable. Users can easily control the level of security that's required, fine-tuning antivirus and firewall needs to suit their PC usage. A separate firewall application is included, allowing gamers to specify which connections are and aren't capable of accessing their PC.
While BitDefender GameSafe AntiVirus Defense includes all the standard antivirus features of non-gamer versions, it lacks the performance and system tweaking tools that many BitDefender users appreciate. However, as an all-round antivirus application for gamers, few products offer the same level of security performance and minimal system footprint that BitDefender GameSafe AntiVirus Defense is capable of.
