Kaspersky Internet Security 2010

[gamepro127]

Just started testing KIS 2010, seems really good! TONES of features and it uses less than 15MB of RAM.
It may be better than Vipre and NOD32.
Also, the firewall is really good!

KIS 2010 ftw!

i feel very safe with it...although i can't help but notice your signature...

Dang never noticed that it was THAT low!

although it uses less resources than vipre and nod32, the detection and heuristics are very disappointing.

Really? I thought Kaspersky was the top

I used 07 cause i didn't like the 09 interface. I may get the trial when I Hvae a few bucks laying around. It has to be better than avg IS from trial pay

Not to mention that it completely drained my system during scans. 8GB of RAM and I had to wait for things to load while a scan was running? No thanks.

Yep. I can say that its good on resources when idle and during quick scans. hardly takes 15-20 MB RAM but detections are not good. i installed the mywebsearch toolbar, which is an adaware, kaspersky fails to detect it.

I m happy with Vipre too.

[Dinesh]

I was using ESSBE on W7 but it disabled my internet access, I tried Avira it halved my bandwidth. I was using NOD 32 + Outpost (but Win 7 security center does not detect Outpost and it seems to fluctuate my bw) - I tried the KIS 2010 suite Beta which is free for 1 month - its not bad.

Try Vipre AV.

Yea pc tools is good they gave me a 1 year free of their "Internet security" and it has the same firewall. Never had any problems with it!

I really dont like VIPRE, made my computer slower than it was when i was using ESET Smart Sec. (ESS) Anyone else notice the name thing? Im currently using BullGuard, very happy with it But then again... all i really have on my computer is spyware../malware ^^

So one of the fastest and lightest anti virus software apps out there slowed down your system?

Hmmm...what version were you running? When was this? What else did you have on your system at the time?

I just can't see it personally, how Vipre could slow any system down.

 

[mckillwashere]

Viper is great. Scan is fast, but PC Tools Firewall+ cannot be detected by windows, any idea's?

 

[Dinesh]

what do you mean its not detected? are you talking about action center?

 

[mckillwashere]

Yes, the action center(sorry about not specifying) . Its saying firewall not installed.
