hi !

i´m going to install Kaspersky Internet Security 2010, which component is the Firewall ?

i don´t want to install it since i´m using Comodo´s FW instead,
and i really don´t want KIS to mess up...

I hope you do not think that I am out of line, but I truly just want to help. Look at some of the posts. Kasp. has caused a lot of problems. Many just wind up uninstalling and even that is a problem. Compare it to MSE, free from Microsoft, Microsoft Sec Essentials. Whatever you choose, I wish you the best.

hi !

yes, i know about previous problems with KIS, but i also know that many are reporting that KIS 2010 works very well.
and it´s also free, since i have a license...

as you can see from my signature, i´ve been using Avira & MSE,
i have installed W7-Enterprise today and want to test KIS.

but, my question is: which component is the firewall ?

If you are already using comodo firewall, go for kaspersky anti virus instead of full suite.

hi !

thanks for the tip, but i was thinking about using KIS including FW later on.
found out that the FW is called web-antivirus (?!).
problem solved, KIS doesn´t like Comodo, so i´m going for another combination instead.

KIS

Kaspersky Internet Security actually has a very good firewall I would just use KIS or you could switch and use Comodo Internet Security since you obviously like their firewall

Hi, hackerman1. (Yes, its the same Corrine from TWC ;) ).

You will need to do a custom install if you do not want to remove the Comodo firewall. See Installation / Uninstallation

I take it you are planning on uninstalling MSE and Avira (and hope that you don't have them both active now.)

hi Corrine !

welcome to sevenforums, nice to see that you too found the best Windows 7-forum.
very nice to have another security-expert & MVP here.

mods: sorry for cross-posting in 2 threads, but someone else might need the info here too...

yes, i know that i can install KIS without firewall, i tried to install, but it wanted to uninstall Comodo´s FW, because it´s KIS A/V-component is non-compatible with Comodo´s FW.
the BIG problem is that KIS is non-compatible with a lot of other A/V´s & FW´s...

can Comodo´s FW really be used together with KIS ?

"uninstalling MSE and Avira ?"

i installed W7-Enterprise yesterday, so they are not installed....

hi !

Corrine: i understand where you got it...

well, "my security"-list is now accurate again, at least until i find out about KIS & FW´s,
although for the moment MSE´s realtime protection is off, as i want too see if i notice any difference in performance.

With a licensed version of a2, you have real-time protection included there as well. It really shouldn't be necessary, and generally not advisable, to run two real-time protection programs so you may want to experiment between the two, a2 and MSE. In addition, between UAC and WinPatrol anything that gets past real-time + A/V should be caught there.

Hitman Pro

If you want a really good on demand/behavioral cloud scanner that uses multiple scanner engines in the cloud and something with the best removal ability I have ever seen check out Hitman Pro I highly recommend it.

When I go to disinfect a clients machine I go in with Hitman first and in just a couple of minutes it will find and remove all of the worst stuff including rootkits and if it encounters an infected file that can not be cleaned it will prompt you to insert your OS disc and it will remove the uncleanable file and replace it with one from the disc this program is a must have tool.

computerplus,

hackerman isn't looking for a security solution. He said he has a license for Kaspersky.

Extra Tool

I am aware he is going with Kaspersky and I applaud that, I think Kaspersky overall has the best security suite their is but I just wanted to mention Hitman as an extra tool to have because security should be layered and an extra on demand scanner with multiple scanning engines especially one with the removal ability of Hitman would make a great addition to an already superb program like Kaspersky.

Based on hackerman's "my security", he is probably more than covered. (@hackerman, remember that both MSE and Avira area antivirus programs. You do not/should not have both active.)

my security: a normal "USER-account", MSE, Avira-free, a2-full, MBAM-free, Comodo´s FW & D+, WinPatrol, a HOSTS-file, UAC at max, a working "main CPU" & "2 optical input units"

Recommendation

Just making a recommendation as he is making a change what ever he does I would for sure not be using 3 real time scanners at once as mentioned.

Just don't turn a blind eye to Hitman I would not recommend it if it was not an awesome program!

Sorry, computersplus. I've never heard of Hitman and we don't use it in the security forums cleaning malware. When I tried a search for Hitman (both Bing & Google), I am finding search results for a movie, a game series and assassination services.
