Rating: - More Problems than without!
I bought this as i thought it would protect my computers - it almost destroyed them! I put it on a XP and then on a Vista.
The XP one could not connect to the internet at all. It took me hours of frustration only to find the internet once i un-installed it.
The Vista one was even worse. Not only did i lose the internet i almost lost my computer! Luckily i had a restore disk and i did it to 3 days earlier - it took hours but thankfully Kaspersky was gone and everything worked again. Phew!
Rating: - Kaspersky is worthy recommendation
Why is Anti-virus important? While the Internet is a great resource, harmful Viruses and other malware can be a real threat, not only because of the possibility of causing havoc on ones computer, but there could also potentially be a threat to personal details. The good news is, more computer users are becoming aware of this and are installing Anti-virus Software to protect themselves. This is partly due to Microsoft implementing the security centre in XP SP2 and Vista that pops up warnings if no Anti-virus software is installed, which is a good feature especially for the more novice. The bad news is, there's now a market literally littered with different Anti-virus solutions from various software providers, so knowing which is the best solution ... Read More:
Rating: - Not completely convinced........ but still excellent
Having previously used other popular anti-virus software, I did a review of all the reviews and Kaspersky 7 came top, so I decided to switch to it.
Plus points? Good value - especially considering it comes with a 3-user licence, so ideal for a desktop and couple of laptops. Reviews suggest it is currently the most effective package. Easy to install. Has found trojans/viruses attached to peer-to-peer downloaded music that others have missed.
Minus points? Although possible to install and forget, user interface is not maybe quite as intuitive as some of the competition, but really a minor grumble. Virus file updates from Kaspersky, although regular and small, download really slowly, and can cause problems with start-up. Also, ... Read More:
Rating: - Intrusive and dreadful support
I bought it because of the good reviews it has. Certainly the PC boots quicker than it did with Norton.
But it is extremely intrusive software. If you have a home workgroup-type network with 2 PC's, both with Kaspersky, then it disables that network completely. There is no setup guidance on this, nothing on their site, and their only tech support mechanism relies on submitting requests, which give an estimated time to answer of 1 day, and takes 5+. I fluked finding a post on a forum that explained the workaround, but only after wasting 5 hours, and it does seem to me that Kaspersky are actively concealing known issues regarding the effect on networking.
I am also unable to effectively to use IIS whilst it is running.

Rating: - excellent and efficient, highly recommended
I have used Kaspersky Antivirus 7.0 on my Win XP notebook for about 8 weeks, after having had the Kaspersky Internet Security Suite 6.0 installed on my old Win 98 PC for some 2 years without any problems, switching from McAffee to ZoneAlarm and then to Kaspersky and I noticed a considerable improvement of PC performance on the old machine after switching to Kaspersky, which still runs ok on the P3 750Mhz machine. On the notebook I have not noticed any drain on systems ressources, while it works smoothly and effiently in the backgroung.
On switchin from ZoneAlarm on my old machine, KIS picked up a few problems which went undetected before and I have not had any infections since, running Adaware and Spybot on demand scans as well from time to time, ... Read More:
