I've installed Bitdefender's Internet Security 2013 recently and it has some sort of built-in "game mode". It's supposed to minimize performance drops while gaming due to AV-activity.

I currently have it set to "auto", but while it does come on in non-gaming situations (such as switching a youtube-vid to fullscreen), I haven't seen the notification while playing any actual games.

I've tried to add MWONL to the "games"-list that IS 2013 provides, but I'm not sure

1. if I should even do this
2. which exe from the Bin32-folder to add here

I went with my first guess and chose "MWOClient.exe". Is that the one to pick? And should I even bother adding any .exes to that list?

I use avast and it has basically the same thing... you wont really notice anything.. it just won't do alerts and stuff like "virus database has been updated" notifications and stuff so it won't interrupt your gaming... you would probably want to add mechwarrioronline.exe to the list if you wanted to enable it... to be safe you could just add all the .exe and it would turn on for all points of launching MWO... it wouldn't hurt anything but as I said, it just turns of notifications really...

edit: it probably won't update when gaming mode is turned on aswell but i'm not sure..
