Why does BitDefender kick out the following message when I go to their website?

firefox.exe attempted to establish a connection relying on an unmatching security certificate to happy-customers.credibly-app.com. We blocked the connection to keep your data safe since the used certificate was issued for a different web address than the targeted one.

Just what is says. The website security credential is using an unmatched (likely old) certificate. The key says it belongs to XYZ. However the website is coming up at PDQ. It should be safe as long as you don't try to purchase anything straight from the website.

Do you believe it makes any difference whether its on the front or the rear? It's the same airstream.

It's not bulk ionizing air. The Ti02 is acting as a photocatalyst. Google the Honda-Fujishima effect for details.

I understand the effect. It's not the same as straight plate ionization. But the bio-chemistry and physics behind it require ionization just the same to break down protein sheaths which protect the payload (DNA/RNA). It's just on a smaller local scale.

It's not as ineffective as you believe. The fan is rated 34cfm, which in your average 150 sq. ft. room means that at full speed it will exhaust the entire room every 35 minutes or so. Put two of them in a case, and you'll purify your room four times an hour.

i like the idea but you're math is off.... A 12x12 ft room is typically 8ft high so 12x12x8=1152cubiuc feet which is just over 33hours IF it were possible (it's not) to separate the already cleaned air from the 'dirty' air.

Throw 3 of these in an old case and make it into a home-made purifier sounds like it might work well for anyone looking for something like that.
