Have 2 Win 8 machines, running Firefox 25 and one lap top with Win 7. All three are using Mcafee Security Suite ver 12.8 with Anti Virus 16.8. The subscription runs out in February 2014. I would like to make a change and am concerned about compatibility issues using Firefox ver 25. Are there any compatibility issues with Bitdefender Windows 8 Security? Are there any compatibility issues with Kaspersky Internet Security 2013 or Pure 3.0 Total Security? If I do make a change on the Security Suites, I will be using the same version on the Win 8 and the Win 7 machines. All three will be using Firefox 25. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Firefox doesn't have any known compatibility issues with any of the major anti-virus suites, but honestly you are wasting your money if you pay for them. Uninstall them and use Window 8's built in Windows Defender. Update your Windows 8 machines to Windows 8.1, and make sure your win 7 machine is up to date, and always keep everything on your machines (Firefox, plugins, etc.) all up to date. That will keep you secure as possible.
