A good program but...
Pros: This software is one of the antivirus that is really good.It uses little system resource and the interface is neat and clearly layout.Anyone can figure out how to use the program as the program also have explanations on what each options are for.
As I have tried Norton,Mcafee,Avg, I find kaspersky one of the best to use and scanning didn't consume alot of system resource.Didn't slow my computer down.Updates was easy.
Cons: Although this program was extremely good it kept constantly hangup my machine.Windows Xp would crash during bootup and as I recall before my format I uninstalled Avg to try kaspersky.Just after installing kaspersky the computer was so unstable and the computer was so slow i couldn't even use windows properly.I have no idea why maybe the proactive defence,file defence etc that is causing the problem .I couldn't click the start bar after restarting the computer and the computer froze as soon as it went to windows.
After formatting the computer.Kaspersky ran fine however it would crash windows quite frequently.The computer went extremely slow after 2 days of use.It was very unstable and caused alot of problems on my machine.
I had to uninstall the program and installed NOD32.It was better than kaspersky used less resource than kaspersky and ran like it didnt exist on my system.
I rate this software 3/5 and if I could choose half a mark I would probably choose 2.5/5.What good is a software when it causes more problems before you catch any virus?
Maybe its just my machine but I have a pentium 4 3GHZ machine.I am sure the problem might not occur on other people's pc but you have be warned.
I nearly had problems going back to windows xp
