    if you want more protection than usual.. you could try bitdefender internet security.. i use it especially because of its IM encryption feature.. which is very useful for an IM freak like me.
    good luck and stay protected!

    I upgraded my 2009 Kaspersky Internet Security to the 2010 version. Overall impression?? KIS 2010 is to Kaspersky what Vista was to Microsoft. A Pretty GUI but a massive disaster overall. Form over function.

    2010 has slowed down my system in a big way. Web browsing badly, and I mean badly hit. Overall my system feels heavy and slow....I am definitely going back to use KIS 2009 for the duration of my license.
    (my hardware: 2.33GHz Dual Core, 2GB Ram, Nvidia 7900)

    Steer well clear of this program. You have been warned....

    kaspersky 2010 looks very nice,no resource eater,very many features included,but people from KL forgot to improve its heuristics and database signature.The same poor detection,the same confusing reports after scanning or detecting malware.The 2003-2006 years when they were used to be the king seems to have passed.Overall impression-chic but weak

    At first, the software would seem like a very competent antivirus (AV, from here on). It prompts you (depending on the security level that you've set), for each and every potentially malicious action that a program takes. Try launching MS Word, and you'll get half a dozen of prompts that ask you for your permission to allow it to access some kind of DLL, registry setting and what not. Perhaps, the KasperSky website correctly and deservedly boasts of its highest detection rate.

    But, in an unfortunate even of an attack of a virus, which is when you need a help from your AV software the most, it fails miserably to remove the infection. I've had a terrible experience in this regard. Eventually, I had to download, install AVG (a free software), which removed the infections in a minute!

    Apart from its inability to disinfect, the software is resource hungry too, and will slow down your system till it crawls. So much so that you wouldn't feel like keeping it active all the time, which is very essential to prevent an infection in the first place!

    All in all, it's a disappointing software. I'm ditching it and going for the free AVG.

    Trialed version 7.0.1.325 on XP SP2, P4 2.4, 1 GB RAM, with Outpost Firewall Pro 4 (1025) and PC Tools Threatfire installed.

    Upon initial install, Kaspersky told me Threatfire was incompatible with it and had to be removed. Uninstalled Threatfire, rebooted, and strated Kaspersky installation again. Installed fine. First thing I noticed was overall slower system performance compared to my previous AV, AOL\'s Active Virus Shield. Ccleaner took a bit longer to run and opening Firefox took longer as well. Then the real issue appeared. Websites took forever to load. Actually, I gave up after about 30 seconds when normally they used to take only a few seconds to load.

    I heard Oustpost firewall had compatibility issues with Kaspersky, so I added Outpost\'s directory to Kaspersky\'s exclusion list as recommended on Kaspersky\'s site. Also did a registry hack recommended at Kaspersky\'s and Agnitum (Outpost\'s) site. Didn\'t help. Marked Kaspersky as a trusted app in Outpost. Didn\'t help. Messed around with all kinds of combinations of settings in Kaspersky and Outpost. Didn\'t help. Shut down Outpost completely. Didn\'t help. The only thing that helped get my browsing back to normal speed is shutting down Kaspersky completely.

    Yes, the software offers excellent protection, especially with its built in behavior monitor/HIPS feature, but what good is that if it doesn\'t wanna play well with the firewall of your choice, and slows down your web connection to the point where it\'s unusable? Kaspersky needs to make their software more compatible with other, similar security software. If Threatfire, which is a behavior blocker similar to the one introduced in the new Kaspersky, can get along with other security apps and firewalls, then why can\'t Kaspersky?

    Oh, within a couple of hours of installation, I got a blue screen stop error, probably due to a compatibility issue with Outpost firewall. That made my decision final. Went back to using Outpost firewall with Threatfire and decided on Antivir as my anti-virus. That combo has been working flawlessly for a few days now with no noticeable impact on system performance or browsing speed. I won\'t try Kaspersky again until I hear widely around the net that it\'s become very compatible software. Until then, I\'m done with Kaspersky.

    KAV 6 adds a feature of System Settings Lock (Ad-Watch or Windows Defenders real-scan like). But the interface turnes relatively chaotic now. Moreover KAV 6 seriously (like Norton) slows up the system.
    So it may be more clever to stick with KAV 5 for now.

    The new version of Kaspersky AntiVirus almost removes all the need for a separate antispyware program.
    Obviously, as expected, the new Kaspersky AntiVirus v6 gives the user a new interface, improved scanning engine (improved resource consumption), less running processes and more user-friendlyness. But what I was not expecting was an antispyware engine.
    1) KAV6 detects adware/spyware like your normal Antispy program
    2) KAV6 offers a proactive defense mode for advanced users which asks the user to confirm all processes which are run for safety.

    The only things I couldn't find in KAV6, as far as antispyware features go, is IE home/search page protection and IE plugin protection. Those features are still important, so KAV6, while giving users antispyware protection, still requires a pure antispy program like Windows Defender, Ad-aware, or Spyware Terminator...or anyone with active scanners for IE protection.
    Even with the KAV6 Antispy protection, regardless of the IE protection, I still feel safer WITH an antispy program, since my experience with KAV is that I need an AS in conjunction with it...i will have to see KAV6's reaction to different spyware before i ditch my antispy program.

    The interface is great...alot faster. The program is faster and the scanning is MUCH faster.
    And thank god, FINALLY, they inserted a SKIP button in the scan process so you can choose to skip the current file. I dont need KAV6 scanning those HUGE zip files i have.
    Also the start/stop/pause system for scanning is quite original...in the upper right of the scan window you will find VCR style play/pause/stop buttons to start/pause/stop the scan.

    The best AV program just got better.

    Im going to agree with HellRaiser...
    and the reason that it uses more reasources, or it seems that way, is because the automatic updates was implemented very poorly.

    Previous releases are highly recommend over this release (5.0.227) because when the software wants to automatically update (which usually is at window startup) it makes the computer stall BIG TIME. And jeez, the first time you install this, forget about it. It will stall even the fastest of computers for a good period of time as it updates. And you dont even know how much longer the update will take since the automatic updates dont show a status window unless you open the software and click the automatic updates button. But at that point you are restarting the process and making it stall even longer.

    Other than that though...Kaspersky is one of the better AntiViruses out there.
    There is a german company out there that does an annual virus scanner report...comparing 50 or more of the top AntiVirus/AntiTrojan softwares out there. They test the softwares against a know library of virus, malwares, trojans, MSDOS batch files, and a few other categories of files. And after all the smoke has cleared, it becomes a 2 horse race...
    F-Secure and Kaspersky. Both of these softwares detect more than 99.9% of crap in the world.

    When i first got this software, i was just curious to see the big deal about it. At that time i was a norton antivirus user. And boy was i surprised. Kaspersky found stuff even after having Norton run all day all the time with occasional full scans. It was amazing.
    The german report lists Norton below 90% detect rate which is quite disappointing, considering the effect alot of the crap out there has on a windows system.

    The only thing i dont like about Kaspersky is that it likes to deep scan things archives which takes forever. This is the main reason why I never run a fullscan on my system, ever. It just takes like 12 hours to do a scan.
    There exists the ability to tell Kaspersky what to avoid scanning (such as rar archives, zip archives, etc.), but even with specifying all that i dont want, it still takes too long. Part of htat reason is that you really cant tell Kaspersky to skip .exe files. Most exe files arent archives...but a lot of times they are, and kaspersky will scan them. But its kind of neat to see software installs you downloaded that kaspersky picks up as having a trojan in them or something (I cant think of any off the top of my head, but i can definitely say that kaspersky has found a few in my repository of software installations).
    The problem with excluding files though is that the software complains that you havent completed a full scan, because you're removing stuff from the scan. But I dont care...its the difference between a 40 hour scan and a 20 hour scan...literally.
    I dont know what those german companies use to scan, but they say a Kaspersky scan only takes 40-50 minutes...
    I dont know what kind of computer they expect people to have, but 40-50 minutes...haha, yeah i would love that kind of scan time.


    But because it removes so much and keeps a system very clean and removed of the crap in the world, besides doing it better than 99% of the other scanners out there, its worth of a 5/5 rating.
