Advantages: Packed With Useful Features, Doesn't Sufficiently Drain Your System Resources. Peace Of Mind.

Disadvantages: Installation Problems, Overly Complex User Interface.

Like so many other people out there, I've tried pretty much every single Internet security suite and anti-virus package in existence. Obviously some are better than others and offer far more in terms of security. It's been a long time since I've used a Kaspersky product so I decided it was time to give it another go. Needless to say, I'm glad I did as this Internet security package is brilliant.

Kaspersky offers an entire arsenal of tools and utilities to protect you and your computer. There are far too many to list them all, but trust me when I say that it gives you everything you could possibly want and more. I especially liked the virtual keyboard (a tool for entering your credit card details, passwords etc online.) When the software is running in the background I didn't notice any drain on system resources, but as my system starts up, it does always seem to be the last program to load. Still it only adds seconds onto the start up sequence, so I guess it's nothing too major. After installation was complete and the program was updated everything ran in the background perfectly happy. Kaspersky always seems to be winning awards for their security and anti-virus engine, after using their program it's not hard to see why.

I did have some difficulty installing the software, mainly because I had AVG installed before hand, and despite uninstalling it prior to the installation of Kaspersky, I kept getting an error telling me that I must uninstall AVG before I continue. I had to go into my registry and delete every trace of AVG before continuing. From reading other reviews online, this seems to be a common problem. I don't know if the fault lies within AVG or Kaspersky itself. But nevertheless after this was fixed, installation was easy and reasonably quick. But one thing that did annoy me was the fact that the registration code was printed in the centre of the disc, and because of this it was a bit difficult to read and it took me several attempts to copy it correctly. The user interface also seems overly complex and unless you know exactly what to do, you can get a bit lost in all the options. Saying that it is still far better than McAfee's interface.

Kaspersky definitely seems to be one of the better packages I've used, and it gives you peace of mind while you're online.
