That site seems not to have had issues with Panda. It seriously made my system run like a brick wall. I installed it, tried to run AC:Revelations, and it was stuttering on the lowest settings, rather than being smooth on the highest settings. On exiting the game, Win7 advised me my PC sucked and I should turn off Aero, as if that would help. I couldn't run even Spelunky while it was installed.

This is why I'm looking. MS is generally called "better than nothing."
