I use a paid VPN and contacted firm re connectivity problems with VPN and internet after their last update.. When I connected to VPN my internet connection dropped out every time so I could not use vpn. They advised my antivirus program was the problem. Has anyone else had this problem? Can anyone recommend a free virus program that does not interfere with VPN? I was using 360 Total Security. I uninstalled 360 and it made no difference.

Solution
I had a lot of issues with PIA's app.

If you're using that the only thing that worked for me was running it via openvpn in linux.

You can consider running it on your router if it's supported. I've read that it's pretty stable.
