seems like 99% of issues are related to updating from 2009 to 2010, lots of problems were solved by simply uninstalling 2009 first.

Hehe, I had a hunch I should do that first, and I did! No problems here.

How does it compare to 09 resource and speed wise? Didn't really like 09 all that much. It was starting to get a bit bloated. Ver 6 was still my favorite so far.

12MB of ram use, less lag when it scans apps that are starting for the first time. web pages load a little faster. GUI reworked and nicer to use.

So they trimmed it down compared to 09? I wonder how it compares to Norton 09 now?

My AV license is about up. This is going to be one of the tougher times I've had deciding on an AV for a few years now. lol.

You could try Sunbelt´s Vipre....http://www.vipreantivirus.com/
I have allways used KAV (and still does on a few laptops) but Vipre is a good alternative

Having learned my lesson when I updated KIS7 to KIS 2009, I ran the Kaspersky uninstall application before I tried to install KIS 2010.

So, for me, it is not a question of installing over top of the old KIS.

That, and I wont change my AV on somebodies word. I need proof that the app is at least as good as Kaspersky, NOD32 or Norton 09. No offense, Vulkan.

I paid £10.99 for my KAV and 14.99 for my KIS, both 3 users, 1 year :rockout:

is KIS 2010 faster than KAV 2009?

VulkanBros · Jul 1, 2009

Well it was ment to be an alternative......
Priceing for Kaspersky here in DK is a bit higher...but I have never complained, as
KAV is one of the best AV´s out there.

Vipre is good....several Danish Antispyware sites have given the Vipre
good recomandations ... and well Sunbelt Software are not unknown....

It works great on Win7, not had any problems with it yet. though Im curious about the 'gaming mode' function. does it detect 3d apps & initiate it automatically??

King Wookie · Jul 1, 2009

Right. I've been happily using Bitdefender for some years now, and it's been mostly reliable across quite a few machines. But, my subscription is about to end. Why would I be willing to pay more to switch to Kapersky?

After years of using either free AV suites or using cracked keys and such, ive given that side of me up. Just over £4 for 365 days of protection?! :rockout:

Ah, but any useful comparisons to offer to back up your sage comment?

look at every thread on TPU where someone asks what antivirus to use. kaspersky is always the most commonly suggested, followed by nod32.

When the majority of an IT tech site agrees on something, you should listen

well I suppose you could say Im running a 'cracked' version of KIS2010 -except there wasnt any cracking involved & I didnt have to pay a single penny for it.....

FreedomEclipse · Jul 1, 2009

Unfortunately - Ive run into a few issues with KIS2010 on XP PRO (which is installed on my laptop) everything starts up just fine, then it startes slowing down my laptop then i start getting windows runtime errors. Its happend twice now.

Im gonna run a reg cleaner & probably XP chkdisk thing or whatever. No complaints with it running on Win7 still so far

i have seen a few mentions like that on their forums.

Might be advisable to XP users to run Kaspersky 2009, or get with the times and use a modern OS.

vista would run fine (with indexing off, due to HDD), 7 would run peachy. My vote is 7, if you're ok with an OS that will expire march next year.

That's what I would say as well. Throw the Win 7 RC on there. And I thought it was good until July next year?

Now, any reviews on KIS 2010 yet? Like I said, I was unhappy with the performance hit 09 gave, so I won't be going back until they get it back up to speed. They are starting to go the way Norton did, back in the day. They keep making it more and more bloated as time wears on. They need to get it in check before it becomes a real problem.

And like I said, KIS 6 (before they named it by year) was still the best release, imo. It had more features and higher detection rates than most other AVs at the time, AND it was faster and more efficient.

Right now, the crown is going to Norton 09 in terms of performance, features and detection rates, at least until somebody tests KIS 2010 against it.

Mussels · Jul 1, 2009

as of march, it starts shutting down ever 2 hours. it stops for good in july.

performance hit is largely gone with 2010 - i think thats one of the main things they worked on. this version undoes the bloat, makes it far simpler and streamlined.

Dont forget the best part of kaspersky - custom installs let you remove (not just disable) features you dont want. you dont tick the spam filter, and it NEVER INSTALLS in the first place.
