Kaspersky Internet Security

Virenscanner

During all tests, which magazines have conducted, the current Kaspersky Internet Security 2010 version stood out in respect to security: The high virus recognition rate as well as their Spyware recognition of this software does not have to shy away from comparison with other security software.

This Internet Security software checks your computer for existing security leaks, advises you of existing, but not installed security updates and warns you about risky and dangerous browser configurations.

Among the special feature included of Kaspersky Internet Security are auto-configuration of the Anti-Virus, the self-protection feature that protects itself from unauthorized access (threats turning the software on or off), as well as automatic system restore after deleting damaging threats. With features such as these, you do not have to be a security expert in those areas to use the software. Everything runs automatically in the background and the user interface is easy to manage.

Thanks to Kaspersky Internet Security software’s low demand on system resources you will hardly notice the software running in the background. The use of whitelists ensures optimized, high scanning speed.  These whitelists contain known software programs such as MS Office. Since trusted programs don’t need to be watched constantly your pc will be less taxed by the scanning process.

Am satisfied with Kaspersky. Works fast but it scanned private data I did not select to be scanned. As far as I know there is no possibility to turn this off or how to, at least stop it from accessing different partitions. I feel spied upon.

We have already used a of different Internet Security Programs in our business. Our favorite is clearly Kaspersky.

Before I purchased the Kaspersky software I only had the GData Anti-Virus on my hard drive. Since my computer had gone on in years it ran relatively slow. I thought the reason was the age of my pc, Because of the recommendation of a friend I tried the Kaspersky software. I never thought about how much an Anti-Virus can slow down a computer. I suddenly felt I had a rocket under my behind. That is how fast my computer now runs with Kaspersky.

Can only recommend KIS09/10. Runs stable without unnecessarily taxing the system. And for us, the most important thing is, that it is reliable.

I started with Kaspersky 6.0 and multiple licenses after I had to remove Norton Symantec because it was too slow and often got stubborn, even up to total breakdown. I am using Kaspersky Internet Security 2010 and can wholeheartedly recommend it.

In comparison to my previous Anti-Virus one can notice a difference in performance. My computer runs faster now and working has become fun again.
