Good yet pesky September 2, 2007
1 out of 1 found this review helpful
When my Norton subscription expired, I decided to try something new because Norton's was a processing hog. Read several reviews on different sites about Kaspersky and decided to take the plunge. I think it's a good program. It was easy to install. Updates require no intervention from me. The interface is friendly, although it takes a bit of time to figure out which function falls under which feature menu/area. Once there, it's easy to make the changes desired. While a user-friendly program, I'm sure there are parts I'm not using up to their potential. I will say that Training Mode is a bit pesky. I get tired of answering it's questions when browsing. It's a necessary evil, per se. It allows for greater customization of what you want on your PC or altering it. The pesky part is why it's just 4 stars.
 Impressive Internet Security software. Simply the best! September 2, 2007

I bought this product on Amazon.com last week as my ZoneAlarm Internet Security had expired. I installed Kaspersky Internet Security last night. Since this product gives you free upgrade to version 7. I simply downloaded the version 7 from their web site and installed it. Then I used the version 6 product key to activate it. It's easier and I don't need to do it again later.
This product is very impressive. My computer is significantly faster - the startup time is shorter, all applications, and even the browser (internet surfing) runs better. I tried all major brands - Norton, Mcafee, Computer Associate, and Zonealarm. They both slow down my computer and use a lot of memory. I highly recommend to try this product!!
All the installation process was pretty smooth. I didn't experience any blue screen or any other products like some users mention in other reviews. A normal user should be able to handle it well. Before install the product, please remember to:
1. Uninstall all other brands Internet security (or Antivirus).
2. If you already installed Kaspersky Internet Security 6 and would like to upgrade to version 7 soon, you should uninstall version 6 before installing version 7. That's why I suggest people to install version 7 directly and use the version 6 product key.
With these proper steps, you shouldn't have any problem with this product. I am happy with this product. I am sure that you will be pleased with the performance of Kaspersky.
P.S. I suggest you to run a Anti-spam training after install the application. You simply select Anti-Spam. Then click on "Training Wizard" and follow the simple instruction. It will made the anti-spam works better.
Impressive! August 29, 2007

Although I purchased the KIS version 6 online at Amazon, I immediately ran the current, updated version 7 from the Kaspersky website which is compatible with both Windows XP and Vista OS's. Because my activation code was within 60 days old, I was also permitted to upgrade to a 3 user license for only $10 more from the company. Originally, I intended to run this software on only one computer, but because of how light it is on my system resources, I replaced my Norton 2007 and Zone Alarm Internet Security systems with this program. All my computers are running more smoothly and certainly more rapidly even while I am simultaneouly performing a scan. I can notice none of the sluggishness in my computers that I have come to expect from internet security systems. I appreciate the flexibility I have to easily customize its functions and the fact that KIS 7 has a rootkit scanner. It has a choice of multiple virus scans from start up objects and critical areas to entire computer system depending on one's preferences. The virus definition database seems to be updated more frequently as well. Kaspersky claims to update on an hourly basis. I am not experiencing any of the glitches and bugginess that I often experienced with Norton 2007 or Zone Alarm. I have also used Trend Micro PC-cillin in the past. I find thus far, KIS 7 appears to be very user friendly and more quicker, dependable, glitch free and deliver the margin of the safety I am looking for in a complete all in one security system. After using this software for close to a month, I am sold on KIS 7. Kaspersky website makes available their programs for a free 30 day trial to test them out for yourself. Don't take my word for anything, try it first. You may be surprised with the results!
Great Suite August 28, 2007
4 out of 4 found this review helpful
This is a great Internet security suite, 7.0 is available now. I've used Norton (slows everything down), Bit Defender (good but doesn't have the firewall you'd like)and Zone Alarm (didn't like the anti virus, but now they use Kapersky's engine, which should speak volumes). After all of these experiments, I have found that this suite has worked the most effectively of all of the Internet suites I have tried. Please take advantage of my financial experiments and try this one first. It seems clumsy at first, but once you get the hang of what it wants, it works fantastic. I love this program, and have been using it for a few months now. When properly configured, it will perform better than any of the competition. By the way, I use a 3 gig processor, with 1.5 megs of RAM running Windows XP.
 Disabled my system, slow customer support August 27, 2007
1 out of 4 found this review helpful
After a couple of years of annoyance with Norton Internet Security (slow; and once went belly-up, evidently corrupted itself in the registry, took a day of discussion with customer service to get it reinstalled and working again), I decided to switch to Kaspersky, largely because of its generally good rating in Amazon user reviews.
Unlike some other products, Kaspersky gets either excellent or terrible ratings from individual users, with little in between. Apparently, it works well for many, but it simply won't work on some systems. I was one of the unlucky ones. I believe my system is pretty standard XP Professional SP2, kept up to date, so no obvious reason for concern. But Kaspersky KIS 6.0 completely disabled my browsers' and e-mail client's access to the Internet, although it did not disable access to my home LAN this side of the DSL wireless router. It also made my system hang instead of shutting down cleanly. Fortunately, removing Kaspersky did work and restored the usability of my system. So I tried reinstalling a few times, in various configurations -- same result. Even with only the antivirus component and no firewall installed, I could not get through to the outside Internet.
Kaspersky customer service was very slow to respond (several days, allegedly because they're real busy after launching KIS 7.0), and all I got from them (so far) has been canned responses, like advice on how to more completely remove the previous Norton installation. Reasonable sounding advice, but it didn't help a bit and evidently was not based on any attempt to understand the details of how my system was disabled.
So, I've given up in frustration, and I've returned KIS 6.0 to Amazon. I'm still trying to decide what to try next.
