Manufacturer's Description

Kaspersky Internet Security 7.0 provides a comprehensive defence system against all of today’s Internet threats, offering system resource friendly protection from all types of malicious programs, phishing, hacker attacks and spam. Now featuring parental and privacy controls, as well as improved keylogger detection and blocking, this suite achieves its award-winning threat detection levels through a combination of three innovative technologies:

1) Automated hourly database updates for quick and easy protection against all know threats

2) To ensure you only ever run clean programs, unknown programs are run in an isolated, secured environment and are checked for malicious behaviours

3) For optimal protection from unknown threats, a proactive defence system continuously monitors the behaviour of your system and programs in real-time and blocks any malicious processes, warns you about dangerous activities and rapidly rolls back any malicious changes that may have occurred.

Customer Reviews

Kaspersky might disable your internet/email But don't be put off!
I have found Kaspersky so much more effective and faster than Norton, but it might need a little fine adjusment and tailoring to your computer. 2 years running when I have installed it, it has disabled my internet connection, but it just needs the ports settings adjusted. For those who might find themselves in my position, click configure mail anti-virus from the Kaspersky menu on the desktop and then select scan pop3 etc highlighted in blue and then keep unchecking boxes until the internet works again.

I recently changed my ISP moving from Norton to McAfee, which were both supplied free of charge as part of my deal. McAfee was simply awful and left me feeling scared to use the Internet so I decided to purchase my own. After searching the Internet for reviews Kaspersky appeared to be well thought of so the purchase was made. Installation was an absolute doodle and I have to say I now feel that my PC is extremely well protected. What's more my PC runs much faster especially at start up, Kaspersky really uses much less CPU usage than any other anti virus / firewall that I have used before. It is so easy to use even someone with very limited computing knowledge will have no problems.

Mr Colin
Quite simply the best anti-virus/malware software I've come across. If you have Trojan and malware problems - especially the dreaded vmundo virus - Norton, AVG and SpyDoctor do not and can not cope with it. I think a constant theme through reviews is those that have suffered infection, find Kaspersky a total god-send.

After downloading and opening a small zip file my computer was covered in infected files. Norton barely noticed a thing, SpyDoctor missed a whole bunch of system files whilst finding plenty of false positives, and other online checks missed these as well.

Manually checking my own system files had already shown there were about 70 new dll's created on the infection date - most unlikely. Deleting system files manually is a real pain even with programs like killbox, and would have failed on many occassions leading to more software and more research. Kaspersky got rid with ease and discovered many more files that re-populated these damn dll's.

Now for the problems the rootkit scan took four hours, acceptable for the solution it provided. Unfortunately when running in the background as AV & firewall, Kaspersky services would attempt to dominate resources and I mean DOMINATE. On attempting to diagnose the problem multiple settings were manipulated. When Kaspersky wants to update the database and scan, it takes an unwholesome ammount of system processing power. I run a year and a half old average dual-core PC with a gig of memory and at the moment you can forget wanting to do anything on the PC during an update and then an automated scan. Sure you can reschedule the time of this but the bonus of Kaspersky's excellent response times in threat solutions is then offset.

A balance between excellent detection and removal with settings that any non IT minded person will probably just turn off.
