Review: Kaspersky Internet Security 2010

September 8th, 2009 khanbm 12 comments

Introduction

Kaspersky has recently released its 2010 internet security suite. Yes, it is a bit early but none the less it is an excellent product it has a new interface and few new features and one of the best things is that anyone who already has a subscription to the internet suite gets the upgrade for FREE! Bad news is if you don’t already have it, it will cost you about $50 per year

Pros

  • Slick new interface
  • Small footprint
  • Lots of customisability options
  • Virtual keyboard

Cons

  • Causes a few network issues
  • Sometimes stops working
  • Deep scan option takes a lot of CPU power and slows the computer down significantly

Overview

Kaspersky’s products have typically been some of the best anti virus products on the market. This new suite is no exception. It is easy to use, and will detect almost every virus on your computer if you have one. It will detect viruses with other suites won’t pick up and has heaps of features.
